Godzilla (was it just too obvious?)
The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms
When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth
Baby: Secret of the Lost Legend
Prehysteria


Also,

Has anyone seen Legends of Dinosaurs and Monster Birds? It's a rare Japanese movie were a plesiosaurus in a lake starts killing beachgoers and later on a pteranadon comes and they fight. I think I might be one of 5 people out there to have seen it.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

It's coming out on DVD from Media Blasters on Dec. 18th - should be a nice enough release, but I doubt I'll pick it up since I already have the OOP laserdisc, Japanese DVD, and even the German DVD.  This is one of my favorite films and the soundtrack simply rocks.

 I bought a Dinosauer Video Series from the flea market  for my son Eddie some years back...it had the silent LOST WORLD, the rare PLANET of the DINOSAURS, atape with trailers and shorts, and a Czech film from 1955 caleed JOURNEY to the BEGINING of TIME. A little research came up with the original title-CESTA DO PRAVEKU. Here's a clip...

  ...the version I have  was an English dub...(and very badly too!)

edit-oh yeah...YONGARY was the 5th tape in the set!

JOURNEY TO THE BEGINNING OF TIME was directed by Czech animator Karel Zeman - not his best work but an excellent kids movie in its original language.  His film NA KOMETE (1970; released on VHS here in the states as ON THE COMET) also features a few dinosaur scenes.

I was hoping someone would name that movie. I saw the trailer for it as a little kid and i forgot the name. Thank you!

I've been waiting for a good DVD release of Legend of Dinosaurs since time out of mind.  I have a bootleg of it, but it's the crappy edited edition that somehow shows less footage than the version I taped of USA about a decade and a half ago.  It shows more footage of the festival, but edits a few of the gorier scenes, like the floating head in the water. 

I've never seen the original uncut version, which is what Media Blasters is supposed to be putting out, but I've heard it's a little bloodier than the PG-rated US version.

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.)

Nobody's mentioned Pterodactyl yet.  Sci-Fi Channel original:  your seal of badness.
