When I was a kid,and the TV ad for this movie was coming on the Late Show on channel 10. I sneaked my way down to the living room to try and see it,but I got caught by my Grandfather,and ,he told me to go to bed. Never saw the whole movie,I think I got maybe fifteen minutes worth of viewing.
I saw this great old monster movie when I was about 15, when it first came out. The dinosaurs didn't fool anybody, but there were plenty of them, and the foggy landscape made this movie one of the best of its time.
BTW, does anyone know where I can see this? The movie was never released in my country, and I cant find it ANYWHERE on the internet for a suitable prize :(
Wow, this movie was really ahead of its time. It´s great use of special effects, and the clever ways to make small things seem big makes this an unforgettable classic in the history of Science Fiction!
I love thee old movies. they are simply fun to watch. In this case the hidden world full of things with pointy teeth that eat unwary travelers and a mad enemy waiting to take advantage of the group. I is an old and honored scenario in stories movies and games nicely done. for the time it was made the effects were fairly good, and the acting better than most.
This is a very entertaining movie from the 1950's with good special effects, acting and better than normal dialogue. I enjoyed it as a film of my youth and am amazed in its quality even today. It is worth the time and also the scientific fact on which it is based is very interesting despite some understandable inaccuracies.

@alekesam Yeah I know, it wasn't easy tracing the origins of the roar. All the Jaws and Duel trivia said it was just some old dinosaur sound effect. No source was ever given.
I like the apparently limited scope of the action. Trailer suggests it all happens in the swamp and clearings near the downed chopper, and maybe in a nearby mountain range. Man, I'd defend that chopper to the last -- their only KNOWN way out.
I found the VHS video. Saw this movie many years ago. Scared the heck out of me. I read somewhere that the tyrannosaurus rex costume was used for "Spot" on the tV show "The Munsters." I love this movie. It is pretty good for its day. No Jurassic Park for sure, but a pretty good movie. Thanks for posting.
@GTbooster Scared me half to death as a kid around 6 when I saw it. Evil eyes of the Tyrannosaurus Rex scared me - plus the other creatures did too - like the Plesiasaurus (what I think it was)!
Yes - I liked it when the dinosaurs moved slowly! It seemed scarier and more suspenseful. Glad that (even though I loved the color of Jurassic Park 1) Jurassic Park 2 was darker and the creatures looked scarier I thought. Jur. Park 3 was more like the older dinosaur movies also - but like I said - I liked the brilliant color of Jur. 1.
You see, modern films now are just running on stupid ideas. Avatar, Twilight, 2012, you know the stuff. We dont want new films, we want the old ones! Could you imagine how cool this film would be if they did a remake today with the budget they used for Clash of the Titans? Give us remakes!
@quinteiro123 If you thought that was cool, watch10(i think its ten) million years BC. The stop motion is cool, yea=s, but the first dion we see is an iguana.
I am only twenty, but I have seen this movie many times over and I have always had great appreciation older movies and anime and this particular movie is on my top ten list of it's class, it is an excellent Bmovie, it shall always remind me of movie nights with my parents at home. I realy, realy love the old classic Godzilla movies too, he is my favorite movie monster.
This actually is a fun little film! Caught it with my dad some 40 years ago on one of those Sat afternoon monster movie shows & loved it! Managed to catch it now and again since, and always enjoyed it! I'm sure Mr. Spielberg also saw it, as he was a dino movie buff in his youth as well!
As for the dinosaur roar... I'd stake my reputation that it was also the sound effect for the enraged Herman (speaking of The Munsters!) whenever he became really 'disapointed'!
The monster roar at 0:15 is the sound used at the end of Steven Spielberg's "Dual", when the truck goes over the cliff. Also, the head of that T-Rex making the noise was used as Spot in The Munsters! For not being very well known, this movie does have some history!
That poor T Rex they show in the beginning would starve too death. His mouth goes all the way to the back of his head. There's no room for his throat he couldn't swallow his food.
@2009skyline Classic doesn't mean old. "The word classic means something that is a perfect example of a particular style, something of lasting worth or with a timeless quality." Therefore a classic would inherently be interesting.
@BigJackFilms Actually, there was a 1975 film adaptation of a Edgar Rice Burroughs novel called "the Land That Time Forgot" which looks very similar to this movie. It stars Doug McClure, who Phil Hartman parodied on the Simpsons in the character Troy McClure.
Never heard of this film,till we went to ,Torquay for our hols. There's a dinosaur exhibition near the harbour and towards the end,there's some old movie posters,stills etc including some for this film.
@EstebanDiedrinho It's used at the end of jaws and duel, and is used in numerous video games. Also, there are variations of it used by numerous other creatures in movies (i.e. the balrog in the 1978 LotR, AND the watcher earlier, not to mention innumerable B-movies).
Surprisingly common, also one of my favorite creature roars.
Saw this when I was a kid. It was actually quite awesome. I actually saw most of these old school dino movies because of this documentary I had featuring most of the trailers like this.
This actually looks like a potentially great science fiction classic. Doesn't it remind you of the first half of King Kong? Also, an Antartic prehistoric land was later used in X-Men...
@70alt1 If only this production had hired either Willis O'Brien or Ray Harryhausen & had all of the dinosaurs,as well as the deadly plant,done via magnificent stop-motion FX.
LOL Apparently Stegosaurus looked like Komodo dragons and had no spike-plates at all. Also am I the only one who thinks that T-Rex actually looks more terrifying than the ones in jurassic park?
There was something so creepy about these ol' dinosaur movies. I can't put my finger on it.
The same thing with most B-movies. Also stop animation, like the original King Kong. Something about that herky-jerkiness and puppets being alive on the screen as monsters freaks the hell outta me.
Modern dinosaur films portray the beasts as mere nature marvels as opposed to freakish horrors back in the day.
We need a good dinosaur HORROR movie, to make dinosaurs scary again.
I used to watch this movie on Fright Night on Channel 9, or Chiller Theatre or Creature Features on one of the many NY stations that had a complete library of sci fi classic films in the 1970s and 80s. I have it on VHS somewhere... Good saturday afternoon fun, some pizza, Dr. Pepper, and its heaven.
Boston in the early 1970s had a lot of great SCI FI weekend movie shows, usally late Satruday night. We went up there a lot, as my sister went to Harvard, and Harvard law.
Thanks so much for posting this. I've been trying to remember the title of this movie for ages. I used to love it as a kid. The T-Rex looked strange (I was used to stop motion dinosaurs, lizards made to look big or Japanese suitmation), but I always thought he was pretty creepy.
I loved how the dinosaurs moved more slowly in old movies - Jurassic Park may be more realistic - but I don't think it was as scary (like The Land Unknown's
Here's some real trivia!!! I know a guy in Hollywood (Bob Burns..he's been collecting sci-fi and monster stuff from the movies since like 1950) and he told me how the head from the Tyranasaurus (suit) in this movie was used as "Spot" the Munsters "pet under the stairs" in that tv series!!!!! Sure looks like him!!
i remember seeing this such a long long long time ago when i was a kid i can hardly remember it. but if i hadnt see this i probably would have forgotten about it all together
The guy said, "That's how I rule them," actually. He's talking about how he controls the dinosaurs by blowing on a loud horn. How do you train a dinosaur, anyway?
Classic 1950's sci-fi!!! I love the eerie sets in this film...including the weird vegetation... some of which was actually grown upside down! Jock Mahoney did all of his own stunts in this film! A bit of trivia: Anyone know which famous actress was the daughter of Jock Mahoney???
If you're referring to Sally Field, Jock Mahoney was her stepfather, not her father. Sally's mother Margaret Field was Mahoney's second wife (he was married three times).
I loved this movie as a kid. It used to play on Saturday afternoons frequently, on our Saturday Afternoon Monster Movie (Roch. NY). The man eating plant gave me the creeps the most, with its tentacles & watery/foggy "mouth" area. And I also remember the tense approach of that plesiosaur with the people on the raft trying to row away from it. Thanks for posting, good memories, I haven't seen this in millions of years! ha ha Cheers.
This was originally promoted by Universal Studios as a major science fiction event. It was supposed to be in color, have better special effects and actors, and a better director. But, as these things often go, Universal had a change of heart and withdrew most of the original budget. Even so, the film turned out pretty good.

The guy said, "That's how I rule them," actually. He's talking about how he controls the dinosaurs by blowing on a loud horn. How do you train a dinosaur, anyway?

Classic 1950's sci-fi!!! I love the eerie sets in this film...including the weird vegetation... some of which was actually grown upside down! Jock Mahoney did all of his own stunts in this film! A bit of trivia: Anyone know which famous actress was the daughter of Jock Mahoney???

If you're referring to Sally Field, Jock Mahoney was her stepfather, not her father. Sally's mother Margaret Field was Mahoney's second wife (he was married three times).

I loved this movie as a kid. It used to play on Saturday afternoons frequently, on our Saturday Afternoon Monster Movie (Roch. NY). The man eating plant gave me the creeps the most, with its tentacles & watery/foggy "mouth" area. And I also remember the tense approach of that plesiosaur with the people on the raft trying to row away from it. Thanks for posting, good memories, I haven't seen this in millions of years! ha ha Cheers.

This was originally promoted by Universal Studios as a major science fiction event. It was supposed to be in color, have better special effects and actors, and a better director. But, as these things often go, Universal had a change of heart and withdrew most of the original budget. Even so, the film turned out pretty good.

hard to take the movie seriously though without laughing at some of the effects. its decent though, i'll give it that.

I love this kind of film, Irwin Allen must have been taking notes for his upcoming "Lost World" in 1960

Cool old flick with a lot of heart and soul.
Don't you hate these nitwit 14 year olds that write "HAHAHAHAAHA" on everything? Yeah, like 5 extra "ha's" make a difference...
