One of Ray's best sequences ever. On top of being an incredible artist, technician, filmmaker, he was a sweet, gentle soul with a wonderful sense of humor.
First time I saw this on TV when I was about 5 or 6 it was greatest terrified me. Also I smelt in love with Raquel that day 😁She was so hero in this film. Great dinos love it

Ray's allosaurs always have this seething anger inside them, like you see in a cornered big cat; they have this snarling, tail-whipping thing going. Dunno how realistic that is, but it's one of the things that makes Ray's work so highly watchable in the face of today's CGI which, despite its advances on stop-motion, rarely expresses that kind of raw animal life-force.
Ha ha ha And please watch carefully all the ladies hair style and their eyebrows propely clipped as they just came out of very modern parlour Ha ha ha ha
Even though humans and dinos did not live at the same time, the video shows what it would have been like had they lived together. A realistic and action packed clip. I really enjoyed it.
Au contraire munfreier. We humans do live among dinosaurs. Turtles, gators, lizards and birds especially birds like the cassowary are all dinos on a smaller scale but nevertheless dinos my friend.
@@armandochavez3365 Scientific evidence supports your statement. However, when we hear the word "Dinosaur", the first image which comes to the mind is that of a T Rex.
@@aengor Gators are related to dinosaurs but aren't dinosaurs themselves. Birds however are definitely dinosaurs. All are members of archosauria which also included pterosaurs. 🐊🦕🦖🦤🦅
I did NOT see this coming when it happened. It was all "this is how you spear a fish" and "ha ha he fell in the water!" then all of a sudden they pull this shit!
Great Harryhausen Animation! One of my favorite scenes. Blew me away in the theater when it 1st came out.It is an Allosaurus but Harryhausen and WillisO'Brien blurred the lines between T-Rex and Allosaurus in their movies. in the 20's and 30's, T-Rex was often depicted with 3 digits in museums. Thank you for posting this apollomovieguy!
@@garyarmitage9359 I wasn't aiming my reply to you, I was aiming it at anyone who might reply saying it's a Tyrannosaurus when it isn't. I also thought it'd be nice to point out that Gwangi was a hybrid dinosaur.
abie pratama That's not Allosaurus but might be from Allosaurus family. Allosaurus 12 m (40 ft) long and weight is 2 to 5 tonnes. This Theropod looks like 4 m (13 ft) long and weight like 0.85 - 1 tonne.
This was made long before Jurassic Park. And Jurassic Park almost used this method. But at some point the movements is even smoother than the first JP movie.
He didn't "lift that dinosaur", you can clearly see that the pole is against the ground. This was a very clever way to end the fight and it showed Ray's amazing talent to pull off such a shot.
Harryhausen's not just a genius sculptor and animator, check out the optically perfect combination of the film elements. The colour/lighting matching is astoundingly good.
Also the way you tell is a T-Rex has 2 fingers on it's small arms an Allosaurus has three fingers on it's arms. Ray is brillant this is far better then CGI I say still! :)
Only nit to pick - there is about 30 or so seconds of extra Allosaur footage in this scene that's cut from most airings of the film, including a terrific right-side shot of the Allosaur pursuing Tumak before Luana finally rescues the little girl and the other men of the Shell Tribe help Tumak.
Why did they ever get rid of the “last breath” concept? In old school movies like King Kong, the beast form 2000 fathoms and one million bc, when a big creature dies, it still breathes for a while as life is slowly escaping its body, like a real animal would. And you can see how much filming effort went into such scenes. Modern day films turn killed monsters into insta-corpses. That concept needs to come back!
It may be just be them not caring for specific detail, as opposed to removing the concept all together intentionally. I do not know, I am naive on the matter.
I used to watch this whenever it appeared on the TV when I was a kid, many years ago. One Million Years BC and The Valley of Gwangi...two great dinosaur movies with stop motion FX by the late great Ray Harryhausen.
