Dinosaur Island -1994- !free! Site
The film’s tone is a delicate balancing act. It never takes itself seriously, yet it never descends into mean-spirited parody. The cast, anchored by Ross Hagen and the always-reliable Richard Gabai, delivers performances that are winking but committed. They understand the assignment: treat the dinosaurs as a genuine threat and the bikini-clad tribe as a serious dilemma, and the comedy will naturally arise from the absurdity of the situation. There is a innocence to the film’s schlock; it is violent and titillating, but it possesses the soul of a Saturday morning cartoon.
