Terrordactyl

Hilarious premise, overall funny movie. The acting isn't great, but you can largely blame the script for that. Lots of gags don't land, the CGI is questionable, I'm not even going to go into the science, or the concept that only one character had ever heard of a pterodactyl, or knew that a meteor wiped out the dinosaurs. So why is this film so hilarious? I have no idea. Objectively it should be awful but now all I want to do is watch it again.

This movie was better than the average low budget dinosaur/giant bug/shark movie, even though there were plenty of things that didn't make sense. While it had the look and feel of a comedy, there weren't any jokes. It was funnier than anything Judd Apatow has ever done but that's not saying much. To me the funniest thing in the movie was that these guys listen to am radio. If you like low budget sci-fi, you won't regret watching this.

Meteors from a meteor storm turn out to be pods containing hungry pterodactyls who have been floating around space for millions of years.

Rating: 5/10. The creatures effects are decent, but the story is fairly predictable, and it has some pacing issues. There are some good one liners. I found the main characters likable, especially the lead actress, and thought they did a good job. For me, this gave me an investment to want to see how it all ends, and overall I enjoyed it. If you don't find the main characters likable, you probably won't enjoy this one. The creatures and story alone aren't really enough to sustain it.

Survival Lesson: If you steal eggs, be ready to deal with angry parents, and generally, the larger the egg, the larger the parent.

Cheesy but entertaining, I've seen a lot worse low budget movies. But if you have some time to kill this movie definitely fits the bill.

Terrordactyl (2016) is an action comedy horror film released in 2016 that tells the story of two friends who searched for a meteor and found that the meteor is an egg from a prehistoric reptile. They come from outer space and attack the city of Los Angeles. Chaos occurs where the two men are trying to stop the chaos .. The movie is so ridiculous .. Petrosaur from space ??? Strange storyline, horrible CGI, but this movie is quite entertaining with all the silliness and oddity. Petrosaurs from the sky .. Is there a dinosaur there ??? Another giant creature ??? Or King Kong ...
