Krell

"Morbius then takes them on a tour of a vast, 20-mile cube, Krell underground machine complex, still functioning (after 200,000 years) and powered by 9,200 thermonuclear reactors. Afterwards, Adams demands that Morbius turn over his scientific discoveries to Earth. Morbius refuses, claiming that "humanity is not yet ready to receive such limitless power".

"D'Agostino: Yes, we decided not to risk using our own names on a new business with uncertain prospects, so Dan suggested Krell. It came from my favorite old sci-fi flick, Forbidden Planet."
