I’m very glad to be able to see this cinematic treasure, very nearly an antique now. This is a rather faithful adaptation of Conan Doyle’s sci-fi classic in which Victorian explorers discover still-living dinosaurs deep in the Amazon. The stop-motion effects are a joy to watch, as I can see great effort has been made to present living dinosaurs with the bare resources available. The sets and backdrops are majestic too, along with the make-up and costumes of the silent performers. A landmark in FX and a very fun gem of a film that should surely be preserved as one of the first creature-features.
