Planet of Dinosaurs was one of those movies which I wanted for ages but got hold of it eventually.
A spaceship crashes onto a mysterious planet and its occupants discover they are millions of years into the past as this planet is occupied by dinosaurs (more of which later). After setting up camp following the spaceship’s sinking in a lake, they explore the planet and start to live like stone age man. Several of the crew are eaten by the dinosaurs and the survivors accept they will be never rescued and have no choice but to make this planet their home.
Now to those dinosaurs, which are done in stop-motion and look excellent. These include a T-Rex, Stegosaurus, Brontosaurus, Policanthus and also a giant spider.
The cast is made up mostly of unknowns and their acting is certainly not brilliant.
Despite this, I rather enjoyed this movie and is worth watching just for the dinosaurs.
