Brace yourself for a chilling ride into the heart of the Congo jungle, as an expedition accompanied by a film crew sets off to track down the mysterious Mokele Mbembe, a mythical creature akin to the Loch Ness Monster. They soon find themselves in a terrifying fight for survival as creatures thought to have been extinct for 65 million years are found to be very much alive. The Dinosaur Project is a stunning live action adventure thriller with breathtaking visual effects that will leave you fearing extinction. (Icon Home Entertainment)

A traditional (adventure) horror found-footage expedition in the jungle, only that instead of ghosts, witches, the yeti or a killer, we get dinosaurs. The setting is nice, the effects not so, but that doesn’t matter because, fortunately, the creators don’t show the prehistoric creatures too much. What makes the film below-par are the characters. It’s impossible to build a positive relationship with any of them. And the last ten minutes are such crystal clear cliché after cliché that it’s too much, even for the genre. Is this is the best live action film with dinosaurs since Jurassic Park? Yeah, no doubt, but the value of that claim is ridiculously low.
