One Million Years B.C. is the best Ray Harryhausen movie and one of the best dinosaur movies ever made. Ray's dinosaurs are magnificent. He didn't animate the giant lizard or giant spider though, but these still look impressive.
The other star of this movie is of course Raquel Welch. She looks well groomed, despite being in prehistoric times. One of the best scenes of the movie is where she gets picked up by a Pteranodon, as a potential meal for its young. At least she survives.
This movie also has a great, thunderous score throughout and is atmospheric.
This is the best of Hammer's prehistoric adventures and is a must for all dinosaur movie lovers.
Rating: 5 stars out of 5.
