The Land That Time Forgot

I love this movie! It proves that it is not special effects that carry a movie, but a good believable story. That is proved because most of the effects used in the film are not good. However the acting is and so is the story! None of the characters appear "cartoonish" with maybe the exception of the pre historic man. But heck, we don't know what pre historic men were like so it doesn't hamper the story. Doug McClure is a very solid lead with the submarine captain in a superb supporting role. The other German officer makes a great villain. This is one of my favorites of all time! Even it's sequel, "The People Time Forgot" wasn't bad. **** out of 5.

This has everything for a budding boy to enjoy. There's monsters, the struggle against evil, a submarine and the stunningly beautiful Susan Penhaligon. I was lucky enough to see this when it came out and it enthralled me. I still watch it on television when I can, with fond memories. It is not aging well. CFXs have left it looking quite poor in places. However, for a B-Movie it is very well done. The acting, storyline, direction and editing are all well controlled. I agree that a remake may be justified, as long as the inherent innocence of it all is not lost. It is good family fun which will keep boys glued for an afternoon. And Susan is as beautiful as ever :-)

Based on a 1918 novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs. After a German U-Boat sinks a British ship during WWI, a diverse group of survivors make the discovery of a lifetime. A traveled war veteran, a beautiful scientist and a German commander are the core of a group stranded on an uncharted island in the South Sea that has escaped the hands of time and is inhabited by prehistoric creatures and caveman-like civilization. One of the more interesting dinosaur movies. Very good visuals and special effects. A very watchable ensemble cast that includes: Doug McClure, Susan Penhaligon, John McEnery, Godfrey James, Bobby Parr and Anthony Ainley. Well worth repeat viewings.

I had not seen The Land that Time Forgot in quite some time before seeing it just yesterday again. I remembered liking it a lot, and had meaning to revisit it for some time. That time came after seeing the abomination that was the 2009 SyFy film, and apart from some of the film looking dated and there are poor special effects in places, I thoroughly enjoyed this. Seeing this film was more than just a nostalgic trip down memory lane, it had a memorable and exciting story, fun dialogue and characters, a wonderful score, good pacing and above decent direction and acting. Overall, while the Land that Time Forgot is imperfect it is worth watching and not one to dismiss. 8/10 Bethany Cox

I first saw this film when I was a child, it had always stuck out in my mind and I was lucky enough to see it again recently. Although the effects are not spectacular, they aren't terrible. In fact they are pretty good considering the era. The characters are well written and likable, the dialogue is not over-complicated with technical terms but remains clever and enjoyable to follow. A real empathy is established for the characters who find themselves in a seemingly fantastic but dangerous situation. All in all I find the film enjoyable for anyone to watch and recommend it highly.

Fun dinosaur movie with a solid British cast headed by suitably lantern-jawed Doug McClure. Respected SF author Michael Moorcock adds a dash of intelligence to what might have been just another Sunday matinee pot-boiler, and the downbeat ending (slightly different to the book) is a change from the norm. The decision to turn the U-Boat captain from the stereotypical dastardly Hun in the original book to a philosophical man of science is also a good one. The submarine is suitably claustrophobic and the jungle suitably clammy, just a shame that some of the dinosaurs couldn't have looked a little more than just as if they'd been borrowed from episode of "Doctor Who". Fans of which should be suitably impressed by future 'Master' Anthony Ainley's nasty performance as the treacherous German first officer Dietz. "Auf weidersehn, Mr Tyler!"

The survivors of a doomed World War 1 ship manage to board and take over the German submarine which sunk them. After a lot of disputing, the sub becomes lost and before long the enigmatic island of Caprona is sighted. Due to desperately low supplies the two crews, who call an uneasy truce, are forced to land the sub and find themselves in a world where prehistoric animals still live. This is a well-made and highly entertaining film. Doug McClure makes a good hero and the other characters are also interesting and believable, the story is well-paced and the music is suitably atmospheric. The special effects are not always as good as they might be (the giant pterodactyl and the plesiosaur that gets shot at look decidedly fake). But the film is a classic and I certainly found it a lot more memorable and enjoyable than any of the recent dinosaur films.
