What a waste of my time!!!

Just so...so bad

Highly Overrated But Still Good

Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible

If you thought CARNOSAUR was a cheesy and cheap B-movie then wait until you get a load of PRIMAL SPECIES, the third in a series that started off with a bad film and got progressively worse from there! Taking place in just two locations (a warehouse and a ship – but don't worry, the two are interchangeable, just supplying a clichéd 'industrial look' background for the action), PRIMAL SPECIES is dull, derivative, worthless and dumb – and those are the good points. This time around, the inspiration is clearly ALIENS, as a bunch of uninteresting soldiers run around shooting at dinosaurs and finding lots of eggs in the process. The script is cheesy and stupid beyond belief, even rehashing the "carved up like a turkey" joke from the first movie! All the characters are mundane and boring, from the female recruit (Vasquez from ALIENS anyone?) to the unintelligible comic relief and the stolid commander. Even the supposedly sexy female scientist is a bore, never cracking a smile or proving her acting worth at any moment.This is a film that utilises lots of smoke-and-mirrors style effects to hide the paucity of the budget. The dinosaurs, when they're see, are a rubbery travesty, worse than any similar effects you'll see in a 1950s monster movie. Most hilarious of all is the T-Rex, a life-size model that can't actually move. The bit where the T-Rex explodes has to be the funniest part of a film otherwise devoid of unintentional humour. Whilst CARNOSAUR offered a ton of gore effects to enliven the proceedings, PRIMAL SPECIES has one bloody moment in which a load of severed body parts are found on a warehouse floor. Otherwise, heads and arms are gooily removed, usually in shadowy areas so you can't see what's going on very well. It's not enough to save the movie. Give this farce a miss!

CARNOSAUR was a blatant rip-off/mish-mash of JURASSIC PARK, THE THING, THE CRAZIES, and ALIEN. CARNOSAUR 2 was basically JP and ALIENS. In keeping with the formula, CARNOSAUR 3: PRIMAL SPECIES combines JP and Die-hard. Third time around, things are starting to feel run-of-the-mill. But here it goes: On a huge cargo ship, international terrorists seize it and expect to find crates of weapons in the hold. At the same time, a group of hardened soldiers come onboard the ship to take out the terrorists. However... yep, dinosaurs with hearty appetites. Overall, the humans give ho-hum performances. There's quite a bit of humor that falls flat. There's not really much action. And the dino footage is mainly recycled stuff from the earlier two movies. It's entertaining, I'll give it that. But it's best enjoyed if you're planning to mock it, ala MST3K. Either way, be ready to howl with laughter!

OK..... This is the third in the series of carnosaur. Lets star with the dinosaur puppets! In the start of the film you cant See the Dino's cause when the body count starts you can only See the Dino's eye vision, pretty smart to hide the bad puppets! and maybe in 16 minutes forward on the film some special force team with Scott Valentine as the leader Rance, the team walks into the warehouse and then they begins to find body parts and dead body's after the Dino rampage, after a while some big box comes failing on the team and you can hear a velociraptor scream, pretty creepy!!! and then a black girl walks forward and now one blooper is found! It pops up a raptor hand and slashed her face but if you pause when the raptor hand comes you can See that its just a guy with a hand puppet!? WTF! The story is simple. 1. Some terrorist's attacks some truck cause they though It wash some weapons in there. 2. They where dead wrong it seams to be ten tons raptor and one giant t-Rex in there! How did the t-Rex fit in there??? 3. Rance and some nerds will kill the dinosaurs! Sadly some stupid blond girl told him to capture one of them alive=( 4. Holy Jesues the raptors have wheels on their feats! 5. The Dino's is now on a boat in the pacific. 6: Strange i didn't know that the t-Rex had a strange thing on hes neck??? 7. THE END. The film is good if you want a good laugh. 5/10

I'm afraid I was not hard enough to watch the whole of this movie. It's one of the few movie that I have ever sold off, but now seeing these IMDb comments, I am beginning to regret it.I suppose that an A movie is a feature film and a B movie is an old-fashioned support film. I don't think this qualifies as a B movie. It must be something a level or so below.It starts off with an army unit escorting a container from somewhere to somewhere else. I started to worry when I saw their uniforms. They looked like pyjamas. But since then I have seen other American army outfits wearing similar things so perhaps the pyjamas were not that ridiculous. One soldier urinates from the back of the flatbed truck. Then the terrorists ambush the convoy and all the soldiers are killed. Quite a statement about the military.When the terrorists open the container to release the beast, there is the only good bit that I saw in the film. When you don't really have any kind of a dinosaur apart from a plastic head and no way to animate it, it was quite well done to use black and white stills tilted at different angles.I didn't like the specialists brought in. They were too indisciplined. They messed about too much. They didn't take the threat of the plastic dinosaur head seriously enough, so how could the audience. The head bands against a door in the warehouse. If it can escape from the warehouse the whole world could be doomed.I think a film about plastic dinosaurs threatening the world would be more imaginative than dinosaurs threatening it.I'd say that the only film I have seen worse than what I saw of this one was what I saw of The Wrecking Crew, which was also made in a warehouse or abandoned factory.
