Triassic Attack

What a FUN movie. Beautifully shot in Bulgaria. Sure it was a LOW-budget production, sure some of the actors should have other jobs at the drive-up Dairy Queen, but hey, it was still fun.

The joker that played the sheriff was probably the weakest cast member. Pretty flat character that should have done a little more FREAKING OUT when danger was on the Jeep. Dontcha think. The rest of the cast was well suited for their parts. Especially the quirky and funny Gabriel Womack that was part McGyver, part stand up comedian. Loved his hair after the "wire-connection."

The reincarnation of a FLYING T-Rex was fabulous!!

All in all a good outing for the Sci Fi channel.

We all loved it, Gabriel!!! Missoula out....

I admit, the only reason I wanted to see this flick is the fact that Emilia Clarke is in it. This was her first full feature and made just before her stardom via Game Of Thrones. It's a SyFy flick and have seen a lot of them I knew what to expect.

This one is a bit goofy because by accident dinosaurs are brought back to life. It shouldn't be SyFy if they added something silly, the dinosaurs are only skeletons. The skeletons do break out of course and are attacking a town.

So it's naturally CGI to create the Dino's. To be honest for a SyFy flick it was rather above my expectations. And attacking they do but in a rather stupid way, they eat , the T-Rex for example, but existing only of bones the bodies fall out of his mouth. And at a beach after an attack the beach is full of separated body parts but it all looks funny and not believable.

Mediocre flick, goofy in many ways. Luckily Emilia has chosen dragons in stead of Dino's.

I mean I don't know what people are expecting. It's not like you have to pay to watch this or something. There's a lot worse sci-fi movies on the sci-fi channel and elsewhere and this really isn't that terrible. I mean it's a zombie dino movie. And yeah the young woman playing the university professor is far too hot and it's got Amelia Clark in it as the daughter of the professor and the sheriff who are of course having marital issues and all but divorced, a typical sort of backplot. I don't know if I've ever seen a movie involving a homicidal dinosaur skeletons conjured up accidentally by an American Indian. But hey all in all, it's not much more improbable than bringing them back to life with DNA preserved in mosquitoes covered with amber. The acting is fair and once you get over the premise the story holds together and if predictable it's still a bit of fun!

I saw this movie years ago. Typical SYFY movie.... Right. Then I saw it again recently, and noticed Emilia Clarke. I figured this must be early in her career. Because I can't see Mother of Dragons doing this movie. Then I started doing a bit of research. Most of the cast is British or Scottish. Only two of the actors are American. And it was filmed in Bulgaria. We Americans can't make low budget bad scifi movies anymore? Where is our pride. "YES WE CAN!!!!" Let's bring back bad low budget scifi movies back to the old U. S. of A. The sad part, this isn't the worse example of fake Non-American bad low budget American scifi movie I've seen. I can't recall the name of the movie. But get this. The whole movie takes place in a English High School. EVERYTHING... literally everything is English. The school, the uniforms, etc. Except for 2 little things. The accent, and the attitude of the movie. It was a bad low budget movie. Having the cast and the theme stereotypical American bad movie, was suppose to save it???

I rarely rip on the acting performances in creature features from the SyFy Channel, but Jesus H. Christ. Where the hell did they find all these people? A project like "Triassic Attack" isn't going to attract the cream of the crop, but this cast goes well below the minimum requirements. For one thing: nobody in this quiet, rural American town manages to hide their British accent. For another, the inevitable comic relief character has the comedic timing of an orphanage fire. The Native American character does seem to be pulled straight from an SNL sketch, but I think those scenes are supposed to be taken seriously. The effects are never that good in SyFy movies, but they are especially bad here. These dinosaur skeletons seemed very difficult to animate, they move in a really unnatural way. There are several scenes where we get dangerously close to "Birdemic" territory. Overall though, the most bothersome thing about this movie is that it just doesn't give the audience what it wants. All you want to see is dinosaurs eating people, and it barely has any of that. And on the rare occasions you do see it, it appears to be completely bloodless because adding CGI blood is more work. Not even good for a laugh.
