    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The method by which the dragons expel fire was inspired by two actual animals: the spitting cobra and bombardier beetle.
    • Goofs
      Van Zan and Alex tell Quinn that there is only one male dragon and, like fish, the females lay their eggs and the male makes a "pass" to fertilize them. Yet when Quinn discovers the egg inside the downed dragon, there is an embryo visible, which should only happen AFTER fertilization.
    • Quotes

      [referring to the dragons]

      Denton Van Zan: Ever see a male?

      Quinn Abercromby: When I'm running for my life I generally don't look back at the plumbing.

    Great sleeper
    I remember seeing this in the theater years ago. Thinking this is good why didn't it do better. It was a sleeper. It should have done better. Good actors. Good story. Solid plot and action. It has a good mix of both action and drama. A hidden gem.
