Wonderful character development!

best movie i've ever seen.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

OK. What would happen, if Roger Corman, who directed produced and wrote all those nickel dime horror movies, like "The Terror" which was made with left over film and three days left in Boris Karloff's contract for another movie, the movie in which Jack Nicholson plays opposite his wife of the time and ad libbed many of his scenes and lines--WHAT IF--Roger Corman "married" Saturday Night Live.You get shlocky trash, you get unknown actors, you get dumb cartoon characterizations shot on the cheap for nickels and dimes--canned and sometimes original linear productions, first act second act third act straight action with a hint of sex ( and little more than a hint ).You'd get the eighties substitute for the chapter serial of the forties, an hour and a half of utter dreck with nothing more than Ed Wood appeal.But.That's the idea. What's interesting is how they put this crap together, and you get to watch.I like stuff like this. $15K worth of technology you could shoot a better movie today.Which is the point.So.Why don't you? And just sit box with a huge box of jujubees you got at RiteAid, or maybe chips unending with hot sauce you'd pay five bucks for, and kick back with an idiot movie you don't need to have a Master's in English lit to comprehend and hoot the villain.Get it?

The trailer and opening voice-over (which I suspect was tacked-on by Troma after the film's completion) of "A Nymphoid Barbarian in Dinosaur Hell" try to sell this film as a campy comedy, but it's actually a rather serious futuristic / prehistoric adventure. The story and dialogue are minimal; the film is slow and often boring, but the stop-motion animation effects for the various monsters, although dated, still have a nostalgic charm (I'd take them over the clumsy CGI of contemporary B-movies any day of the week), and Linda Corwin is very sexy as the not-so-nymphoid barbarian - she has the lean, muscular physique of a track athlete (perhaps she was one), and she can fight too: in the movie's best scene, she chokes a mutant to death. Shortly after that, there is a fight between a deformed "good guy" and the main villain which is surprisingly long and exhausting. My total grade for this film is 4 stars + 2 extra stars for Linda Corwin = 6 out of 10.

SPOILER - like you care - It takes place on another planet. The various monster creatures are therefore aliens, not dinosaurs ( and they're never actually called dinosaurs in the movie, ignoring the silly/stupid prologue tacked on by Troma). The human characters are the pitiful descendants of colonists from Earth, as revealed in the scene with the scarred guy showing Linda Corwin around the TERRA-1 compound. I know, like any of this makes it a better movie.Well for me it did. Considering this was shot on a Bolex, in New Hampshire, with no sync sound, the bits and pieces of back story certainly serve to make it a more interesting movie given its technical limitations. It sort of plays out like a short story from the 70s era of science fiction. And it was fun listening to Brett Piper on the director's commentary describe the old-school FX tricks he used, such as matte paintings and double exposures. It's also heartening to see someone still using stop-motion puppets in a movie. So consider me a fan of this weird little film.

A cable channel that specializes in grade-B drive-in fare aired this crapfest recently. Uber cheese is the only way to describe it. It didn't even have a camp factor. I suppose you could have fun with this flick watching it drunk with friends, but you'd have to be almost blind with booze to attain even that level of satisfaction. It's no surprise that absolutely nobody in this film has done anything else. Not even porn! Now that's a true mark of junk. Then again, I guess when three quarters of the film's characters are named "Goon" there's not much to stand out on a resume. Give this one a pass.
