Berkeley Underground Film Society | The Lost World (1925)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

The Lost World is a 1925 silent film adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle’s 1912 novel of the same name.

This version was directed by Harry O. Hoyt and featured pioneering stop motion special effects by Willis O’Brien (an invaluable warm up for his work on the original King Kong.)

In 1998, the film was deemed “culturally, historically or aesthetically significant” by the Library of Congress and selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry.

The Berkeley Underground Film Society; is an all ages club for collectors, researchers, and film enthusiasts in the East Bay and San Francisco Area. Their goal is to review and share a selective film history of unseen, rarely projected, or otherwise obscure 8mm, 9.5mm, and 16mm prints.
