Raptor (2001) (though I don't know if you really want to count it, as all the dinosaur footage is cobbled from the three Carnosaur flicks)



Is it really? I own this one and I never would have realized. Then again I've never seen any Carnosaur movies so that would make sense.

Yup.  Whole five-minute chunks dropped in wholesale from the Carnosaur flicks.  That's why there are two military teams in different-colored uniforms dispatched to the lab -- so they could mix together footage from the second and third Carnosaurs for that.  (I remember one scene used in Raptor where one of the soldiers clearly runs by a life-preserver hung on the wall -- because Carnosaur 3 had a dinosaur on a boat.)

Wait, is that even legal?

Prehysteria 1-however many they made, 3 I think.

Given that Roger Corman produced all four movies involved, yes.  Unfortunately.

I just saw an ad from Cinema Epoch featuring two titles:

DINOSAUR VALLEY GIRLS

Looks to be a bad softcore comedy.

DINOSAURS VS. APES

Listed as a double feature and there's no IMDB entry, so probably a repackaging of other movies.
I'll take you places the hand of man has not yet set foot...

*looks at picture* Judging by the artwork on the second one, Konga and The Valley Of Gwangi will be included.

Watched Unknown Island the other night!
Dinosaurs as stiff as 2X4s....
Funny as Hell!
I was suprised it was in Color.
As it was A B Movie filmed in 1948.

I Loved it Anyway!
And when he shall die
Take him and cut him into little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night,
And pay no worship to the garish sun.

Next, try Land Unknown... the dinosaurs are a bit better, and one T-rex does his best Godzilla impersonation :P

Love it Tho! :thumbup:
