OK, and most of the creatures in 'Jurassic Park' were actually from the Cretaceous, but this didn't make it a bad film. It's meant to tell a little story in 5 minutes, not serve as a primer of cryptozoology. My only quibble: I think he looked too clean and well-shaved for a man who's been sleeping out in the jungle; in my experience a bit of dirt and a slightly exhausted look would be more appropriate. “Calm down dear, it’s only a movie” (one for the UK readers only).

Crap and well thats really all. The Disney move Baby was a better representation of the Mokele Mbembe creature, and that was back in the '80's or such. Did anyone else feel bad that the guy got eaten at the end by the bad CGI T-rex? Nope, thought not. Oh well. Surely he should have learned something be seeing fantasy movies or reading fantasy books or playing D&D.. Never go into the foreboding jungle/forest/dungeon thing by your self if a large lizard is involved (a dragon for instance) while only caring a short sword (or in this case a 6 shot revolver) come on he deserved to be a light snack for the dino.

I found it entertaining, if not factual. It certainly beats the usual YouTube "I really filmed Bigfoot!" garbage. I suspected this had some link to a Christian organization because of the hinting that men and dinosaurs coexisted on earth. If you've ever happened on that religious channel that Kirk Cameron is always on, they show a lot of 1-star-quality made-for-that-particular-religious-channel movies. If this ever does end up being made into a feature-length movie, I'm sure that's where you'll find it. By the way, for those of you looking for Jason "My Name Is Earl" Lee in this clip...hey folks, there are probably hundreds of guys with a fairly common name of 'Jason Lee' out there. I suspect one of the "natives" was probably a guy named Jason Lee (but not THAT Jason Lee). As vlmagister stated, I am also surprised at all the negative feedback for this goofy little nugget.
