The only good thing I can can say about Mr. Gordon's attempt at SciFi is that I like the title. In fact, I watched this dog one night on the late show because of the title. Imagine, King Dinosaur: can't images of raging T.rex's engaged in predatory battle with velociraptors, alliosaurs or gigantosaurs, flood your inner eyeballs at the name! Then, what do you get? Inane dialogue, terrible acting by no-name actors, scatologically inspired writing and a complete absence of anything amounting to a story or plot-line that would appeal to anyone other than a cretin. My cat could have written a better screenplay. Where did Gordon get the $$ to fund this piece of fecal discard? That's the only part that I find amazing about this film. Bert Gordon and Ed Wood added something to the world of film making, although I don't know if Mr. Gordon ever went in for cross-dressing. While I rarely give a film a(n) 'uno,' this one clearly deserved it. It's a stinker...and there's a video available too? Well, will wonders ever cease?
