* {{Slurpasaur}}: A modified monitor lizard is seen, and later fights a modified crocodilian of some sort. (Unfortunately, this means animals probably ''were'' [[NoAnimalsWereHarmed harmed]] to make the movie; it didn't look like a play-fight.)

Per TRS, and trimmed Word Cruft


* HollywoodPrehistory: The film features thrilling battles between cavepeople and dinosaurs.



* OneMillionBC: Quite possibly, the last significant piece of media in which this trope is played totally straight, right down to the thrilling battles between cavepeople and dinosaurs. After this, it's pretty much only comedies and parodies that put cavepeople and dinosaurs together.

* StockDinosaurs: Zig-zagged. On the one hand the stock ''Elasmosaurus'' and ''Rhamphorynchus'' show up. On the other hand the traditional theropod is absent, in favour of a fictional quadrupedal carnivore. None of the other stock animals appear either and the ceratopsian featured is a ''Chasmosaurus'' instead of the stock ''Triceratops''.
