Go old-school with a classic disaster film on VHS starring the inimitable Paul Newman and Steve McQueen. What happens when a 138-story tower, the tallest building in the world, goes up in flames on its opening night a lot of daring rescues, heart-stopping action, and sheer terror. Architect Doug Roberts, played by Newman, sees his creation transform from a majestic glass building to a towering inferno due to shoddy, cost-cutting construction and electrical engineering. As a result, he's left to try to right the wrong, saving the partygoers and himself from going up in flames all while trying to get to the ground floor. Find out why 'The Towering Inferno' is billed as the best example of the 1970s disaster films.
