On the machines maiden attempt at boring through the earth, David and inventor Perry are trapped in the control room as the machine turns into a runaway. It bores steadily down toward the center of the earth until finally it penetrates into a strange, subterranean world. The two travelers are immediately welcomed by a huge bear-like creature interested solely in having them for breakfast.
