Planet of Dinosaurs is a 1977 science fiction film. Set in an unspecified future, the film follows the journey of Captain Lee and his crew after they crash land on a planet with similar life conditions as Earth, but millions of years behind in time. Encountering a wide variety of dangerous dinosaurs, the crew decides that its best chance for survival lies on finding higher ground and setting up a defensive perimeter on a higher plateau for refuge to wait for when (or if) their rescuers arrive. They soon encounter a deadly Tyrannosaurus and must figure out a way to defeat the creature and survive on the planet.

I can not help but notice the ladies never put on leather bikinis, yet one of guys immediately goes shirtless.
Jokes on you, 70’s, that still works.
And it probably worked just as well in the 70s…

Oh, good catch. Thanks for finding that. 👍
Thanks for the idea, @LaurenceWolse@feddit.nl !
Man, this is lowww budget.
According to wikipedia, most of the budget went to the stop-motion, which is generally what people consider the best part of this movie.
But I got to put a word in for the soundtrack. It is outtasight, like ahead of its time, almost in the same league as the Tron soundtrack 5 years later.
The acting is terrible, but the script, while definitely B-movie level, is not that bad and recalls pulp-era sci fi and Star Trek TOS.
Overall a really good example of a B-movie.
You mean the synopsis didn’t effectively give that away?
