to start off

Spinosaur Island: an island that's only homed to Spinosaurs(and primitive people)?

Tyrannos Claw: a Korean film thats based off of 10 Million BC

Interesting thread idea! I can't think of anything particularly weird right now (too tired), but I hope to see this become an active thread. Could be fun!

Like a really low-budget Primal Rage

Saw this flick yesterday:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075113/

Extremely silly feminist take on King Kong, but the first half of the movie follows the original film fairly closely, including the appearance of prehistoric creatures, in this case a sort of Theropod (man/woman in suit made of cardboard) and a Pterosaur like thingy (puppet). Both animals look absolutely ludicrous. I can recommend this film only to fans of utter camp. 
Both creatures can be seen in this trailer (saves you the time to bother to check out the actual film):

Mad campy parody alert!

Well, that was bound to be expected in this thread.

Nanosaur

This was a game that came on Mac computers in the 90s. You play as a raptor from the future who has to steal eggs from dinosaurs and send them forward through time before the asteroid hits. Also you have a jetpack. I really want to play it again.

[Roselaar]

Nanosaur, oh, the memories! That was such a cool game! The only thing I hated about it was the 20 minute time limit that couldn't be changed. It was great fun playing a Raptor with a rocket pack and armed with heat seeking missiles and nukes slaughtering various dinosaurs and stealing their eggs. And it was a good enough game to spawn a sequel game (which I sadly never played) and this rather graphic comic book:

Stumbled across this oddity of a "Journey to the Center of the Earth" remake.

It apperntly has 2 titles one,
"Where Time Began"
and the other title I found it under
"The Fabulous Journey to the Center of the Earth"

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075389/

It has alot of the same elements from the book, including a Mushroom forrest, and underground sea, and sea reptiles battling it out!

I was able to see some of the movie on youtube, the sea reptiles.....wow, they look like Mosasaurs, however the effects used to create them....they look like hand puppets!

There is also an island full of Giant Turtles, and a Big Man-in-a-gorilla Suite.

I almost forgot about this awesome thread! Hope it gets updated more often, the fun makes it worth it. I haven't got any examples to post right now though, sorry.

[Takama]

Good thing i do.

I Think i might pick this up for Research on my writeing

[Roselaar]

Wow, teen drama, dinosaurs AND UFO's, all for the same price... Sounds like an amazing deal, if you can swallow the teen drama, which I can't.

[Takama]

This is an Arcade style shooter that seems to take place in the Dino crisis universe

I own this game, and i love it.

Also, Dinosaurs in space anyone?



Its the third Dino Crisis Game. And for some reason, they thought it would be awesome to put them in space.

I begg to differ however.

I wish they stuck with real dinos on earth instead of these monstrsites

T-Rex
Giganotosaurus
Velociraptor #1
Velociraptor #2
Giganotosaurus proto types
Spinosaurus
That's just a taste of the madness. I haven't played the game in a while, but they are suposebly mutatated creatures created by a super computer inspird by dinosaurs, and have weird names that i could not remember

[Roselaar]

Kinda reminds me of this cool but silly piece, the SideShow Collectibles Venomsaurus:



The Venom sybiote never assimilated a dinosaur in the Spider-Man comics, did he? What's the deal with this piece then?

[Brontozaurus]

The Venomsaurus showed up in a comic miniseries about an older Wolverine in a post-apocalyptic America. There were dinosaurs for some reason.

Speaking of weird dinosaur things, the Australian 60s-spy-show-spoof-series Danger 5 did an episode featuring Nazi-controlled dinosaurs. It got significantly weirder from there.

Here is the entire episode. I should warn potential viewers that the series is rated M.

Oh my, that is utterly bizarre!! 

And thanks for the Venomsaurus info.

"Old Man Logan", it was a great comic. The dinosaurs came from "the savage land" which was a tropical oasis trapped in time in the middle of Antarctica that existed in the X-men universe (and thus the Marval universe too). The dinosaurs were imported from there.

[Roselaar]

Of course, whenever there's dinosaurs in the Marvel Universe they're imported from the Savage Land. 

I take it Sauron was involved too then? He's always there when the Savage Land is used, and he's a curious dinosaur related figure by himself:

Does anybody know anything about a show/movie called "Super Giant Monsters Attack" (I might be a little off on the title)

It looks to be Japenese in origin and has man in the rubber suite for the special effects.  I saw a short clip of it on youtube of a GIANT styracosaurus destroying a city.  It looked ineresting but after doing a some further digging I got some conflicting information, is this an old TV show or a movie?
