1. Ever see "Crack in the World (1965)?"

From Rotten Tomatoes

"Surprisingly realistic special effects make this sci-fi drama a treat. A well-meaning old scientist makes a terrible mistake while searching for a way to get at the magma lying near the center of the earth so he can use the resulting heat as a new energy source. They begin drilling into the crust, but something goes wrong and an enormous crack appears. His assistant tries to persuade him to quit lest the crack grow bigger and further destroy the planet."

I don't necessarily consider this movie a work of fiction.
