    • Quotes

      [When being attacked, and crammed in to a cramped space]

      Dr. Hodges: There something I should tell you.

      Rance: Whats that?

      Dr. Hodges: I'm clausterphobic

      Rance: Well, if you pass out on me now, you're dead!

    • Crazy credits
      The American Dinosaur Association monitored all dinosaur action. Scenes depicting violence to dinosaurs were simulated. No dinosaur was harmed or mistreated during the making of this film.
    • Alternate versions
      Available in two versions in Germany: An uncut FSK-18 rated version and a censored FSK-16 rated version which has a few violent scenes shortened to reduce blood & gore.
    • Connections
      Edited into Raptor (2001)

    Ignore this. . .

    Well here I go with another B industry movie. It's sad enough to see some badly made films but I don't care if a B industry or C industry produces the film. Show some effort in your work. The characters are really bad. The acting isn't in question in this one (surprise), but plot is. How can a tight-knit squad witness two of their fellow soldiers butchered, and then go on as if nothing happened. What sickened me was how the writer even threw in the remaining members a scene where they joke about how nice the doctor's ass was. Give me a break.
