Professor, There's a big lizard back there and he's heading this way

It only takes creativity and imagination to make a film like this work.

The Valley Of Gwangi takes two childhood favorites and mix them together into one. Every child loves Dinosaurs and many love westerns so having a mix of the two actually works out.

For a film in the 1960s it had some very good stop motion work with the Dinosaurs in the film every frame has been timed to make it work where the actors are actually in the same frame.

The setting for the film does feel like a old time western but with Dinosaurs added to the mix how could you go wrong?

The cast and crew does a good job with helping with the story along with some very good music in the film to help express the emotion during the film.

It is a shame that this film is not given much respect for being creative at the time of it release

The Valley of Gwangi is one of the few films that truly original in terms of story mixing dinosaurs with Cowboys.

While it may not get much attention today as it did back in the day it is still a film that worth watching if you love Dinosaurs.

I give The Valley of Gwangi an 7 out of 10
