I rented this on a nostalgic whim. I saw it years ago but this time around was not a revelation. As for the special effects I think Jason and the Argonauts was the pinnicle of RH's effects arsenal and a far more compelling story but for anyone who enjoyed this I would recomment the above mentioned film.

Review 315: too similar to King Kong not to be it's western ripoff/retelling as it starts with Wild West show folk finding their way out to an even wilder rodeo where this showman's talents may still be put to use, alongside 36 years in stop motion advancements.

This movie is awesome! stumbled upon it and what a treat, stop motion dinosaurs, a mob of cowboys on horses trying to capture them and none stop action, a cult classic for sure!
