Facts about
This picture is a cross-genre hybrid film: it is both an adventure movie and a disaster film.
The meaning and relevance of this film's title is that its literary origins are said to have derived from a proverb which reads: ""It is hard for a man to be brave when he knows he is going to meet the devil at four o'clock."Moreover, in the film's story, the team of rescuer adventurers go out to save lepers on the mountain after the volcano has erupted and the island evacuated. They must return by 4 O'Clock the next day which is the deadline for when the last schooner will depart the island.
This film remained in development at the Columbia Pictures studio for several years before it was eventually made.
