Dinosaurus!

For a Thanksgiving theme, the feature will be the supremely worst reptilian turkey of a movie, Dinosaurus! from 1960. One night, during a storm, dinosaurs that have been frozen in suspended animation for millions of years are struck by lightning and come alive to wreak havoc on an exotic tropical island. Also awoken is an amiable brute of a caveman who, along with the Brontosaurus get into a series of wacky, dangerous and romantic misadventures.

And don't forget all the typecast characters: the beautiful blonde femme fatale, the handsome dark haired hero, the goofy little kid, the fat man, the drunk Irish guy (dinofood...), Hispanic maids who know how to make Molotov cocktails because there was a revolution where they used to live and don't forget the evil guy and his two stupid flunkies.

Stanley Cortez, the brilliant cinematographer who filmed Citizen Kane may have been slumming here, but his images are splendid, the color is rich and saturated, and the action wild! The Director Irvin Shortess "Shorty" Yeaworth, Jr. also directed The Blob and before he died, he was building a theme park called The Jordanian Experience in Jordan! Ludicrously obsessive film archivist, Steven Mayerson will screen kooky dinosaur and caveman themed rarities before the feature.

Also stay tuned for the 3rd episode of the serial The Lost Planet from 1953! On the par with an Ed Wood movie, it’s considered the worst serial ever made with unintentionally hilarious dialogue like "How are we going to find it, it's the Lost Planet." It was the last sci-fi serial ever made…for good reason.

The TV Dinner potluck is open to all members before the feature.
