Triassic Attack (2010 TV Movie)
3/10
Tyrannosaurus Wreck
30 July 2014
Three people are running away from an unseen horror. They reach a water tower. Inside, the sheriff insists a man and a woman climb to relative safety, then he opens the water tower door. Look Out! …an animated dinosaur skeleton is revealed as the monster in pursuit… We then flashback "24 hours earlier," to discover what led us here… Three skeletal dinosaurs became "animated" during an incident in an Indian (Native American) Museum. Taking responsibility for the dinosaurs is Native American rights activist Raoul Trujillo (as Dakota), who has a tantrum in the Oregon museum. However, the real bad guys are greedy land developers who want to desecrate ancient Indian land. Perhaps the dinosaurs are mad because Indians took the land from them. No, that doesn't made sense – but neither does this movie...

Director Colin Ferguson's bickering co-stars are Steven Brand (as Jake Roundtree) and Kirsty Mitchell (as Emma Neil). With any luck, they will rediscover their love before the closing credits, and make rebellious daughter Emilia Clarke (as Savannah) happy enough to do an Indian rain dance. Running with the duo during the opening minutes, resourceful Gabriel Womack (as Wyatt) is the most useful member of the cast. The worst part of the horror is when Mr. Brand takes two young recruits from the local college to shoot a dinosaur with very big guns. Brand should have known what was going to happen the first time one of the dinosaur skeletons disassembled, but he stands there with a dumb look on his face instead of telling the two young guys to run inside… like, as fast as possible. Then, everyone forgets them.
