** Animator Hal Miles has gone on record that he isn't thrilled with the beach fight, due to it replacing his animation of the ''Tylosaurus'' with the crudely shot ''Deinonychus'' puppet. According to both him and the directors, it actually took a lot of strong-arming Corman to even include any of the StopMotion shots seen in the film.

The ''Deinonychus'' hand puppet also shows up a few times as both a terrifying giant creature and as the PluckyComicRelief character.

* FollowTheLeader: Corman tasked Wynorski and Ray to make the film after ''Film/JurassicPark'' came out. However, Wynorski and Ray later rewrote the script from being a ''Jurassic Park'' ripoff to resemble more the land-of-prehistoric-animals and land-inhabited-solely-by-beautiful-women B-movies of the '50s.
