Synopsis

Professor Challenger and a crew of explorers embark on an expedition in search of a mythical plateau in South America. The party is not there long before the jungle reveals its secrets: a primitive ape-man, a Pterodactyl, a massive Brontosaurus, and more monstrous beasts of the Jurassic age.

Our take

A key film in the development of stop motion special effects, The Lost World returns one to a time when special effects had a different level of care involved. Lovingly crafted and acted, The Lost World is a wonderful realization of Arthur Doyle’s classic novel.
