The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 124 (Carnosaur)



The Uncut Gems Podcast

The Uncut Gems Podcast is a show where a bunch of like-minded individuals gather around a virtual table to discuss films that for one reason or another have become forgotten. Tongues pressed firmly in cheek, the team don their film historian top hats and rant from sedentary positions to hopefully conclude whether the film in question deserves to be covered by sands of time or if it is a classic in dire need of attention.

In this episode of the show, we are marking the impending 30th anniversary of the release of Jurassic Park by talking about a movie that kinda ripped it off... a month ahead of its release, no less - Carnosaur. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about why this movie even exists, the business savvy of one Roger Corman, the career choices of one Diane Ladd, doing practical effects on the cheap, our nostalgic connection to video store schlock and of course, how Carnosaur connects to Spielberg's juggernaut!

Tune in, follow, like and subscribe at your podcatcher of choice and be sure to follow the show on Twitter and Instagram as well! You can also support the show on Ko-fi! Also, be sure to subscribe to our Patreon for more exclusive podcasts.
