Oakland Tribune - July 21, 1971 |
Hammer Film's fourth and final prehistoric adventure picture saw the return of director Don Chaffey, who launched the short-lived cycle with 1966's One Million Years B.C.
Although child me might have confused this as being part of a cycle of films that included the like-titled The Land That Time Forgot and The People That Time Forgot, that was very much not the case.
Also there are no 'creatures' in this movie, just a bunch of gibberish grunting men and women in animal pelts. Child me would have felt cheated, as the title would have got my hopes up for there being either lizards made to look like dinosaurs or stop motion dinosaur effects.
Nope. For that you would have to watch either the aforementioned One Million Years B.C. or 1970's When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth. The first and third films in the cycle, respectively.
