I love cheesy sci-fi movies. The cheesier, the better. Husband and I watch these so you don’t have to, but you may miss out on some fun.

Onto the movie from 1979…

Aliens visit the solar-powered house of a middle-class family, and the house is suddenly sucked into a time warp that transports it back to prehistoric times.

1st, the description promised dinosaurs. Were those two things supposed to be dinosaurs? And only 2? They didn’t even eat anybody. I’d have liked the movie a lot better with more dinos.

2nd, I had to add the official description at the beginning of this post because there is nothing I could say in known words about the plot except there were aliens, horses, flying robot enemies [which were actually pretty cool], green lighting effects, fog, and creatures. One of whom knocked on the door and the stupid people opened it. lol Fantabulous.

Whenever anything horrific happened, the actors just stood around staring. Yeah, you want to shake the sh** out of them after a point so somebody will do something.

The beginning, middle, and end really didn’t connect and had nothing to do with each other or the dinosaurs. And what was with the ballerina-like green alien?

Wha? Ballerina alien! You want to watch the movie now, right?

The character I identified with most was the poor horse they sacrificed to the dinos that weren’t really dinos… I really don’t know what they were.

It wasn’t as fun as The Crater Lake Monster, but OK with beer.

 

Three beers would make this a lot more fun, especially since I felt like I had done drugs by the end, because I was thinking ??? And, honestly, more beer wouldn’t hurt.
