"The study of nature, Miss Clayton, has taught me that life is founded upon killing and destruction. The sea swarms with living things that prey on one another to survive." - Capt. Von Schoenvorts

Why watch this? People vs. dinosaurs - always an interesting combination.

Plot Summary: Based on the 1918 novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs and set during World War I, survivors of a torpedoed ship take control of the German U-boat that attacked them. They become lost and eventually discover the uncharted island of Caprona, a prehistoric land where dinosaurs and primitive humans still exist. The opposing groups must form an uneasy alliance to survive the dangers and find a way to escape this forgotten world.

Dad's Preview: This is a pretty good entry in the man vs. dinosaurs category, though the special effects are all practical, and some appear a bit hokey. Still, TV Western fans will love dependable Doug McClure (he's the poor man's Hugh O'Brian) as the lone American captive, who sets about to save the day.
