Hard to believe that TCM showed this nonsense. The dinosaur looked like Barney. You kept waiting for this hilariously bad rendition of a dinosaur would just eat everyone. Come to think of it in King Kong some did. Whoever made this film should have had their heads examined. King Kong it wasn't. Not even close. But it was funny in a bad sort of way.

I love Ray Harryhausen's films, even ones that aren't so great. This one falls into the average category. Typical monster movie of the period. You know the deal, misunderstood monster (who would've been fine if the humans had left him alone) is kidnapped / captured. Sure enough he breaks loose, goes on rampage and dies a painful death. Hey, I'd be angry if I was captured and displayed for the amusement of puny humans!!!! I'd want to go on a rampage if I was nervous and scared in an alien environment!!! This is basically the same story as KING KONG. My main beef with the film is that it seems to take forever for them to get to the 'Forbidden Valley' (a-duh, don't go there, it's forbidden!) and once they get there the cowboys just shoot everything. Typical Americans!! Harryhausen's work, as always, is marvelous and is the only thing you should watch this film for. GO GWANGI!!!

The Valley of Gwangi is a lot better than the earlier dinosaur/cowboy movie, The Beast of Hollow Mountain. It contains a lot more dinosaurs and better special effects. These were created by the great Ray Harryhausen. The film itself is very enjoyable with good performances from the cast including Richard Carlson (It Came From Outer Space, The Creature From the Black Lagoon). The music score is excellent. The ending was rather sad though. This is a must if you like dinosaur films like me. Rating: 4 and a half stars out of 5.

Okay, so it's the only dinosaur and cowboy movie (that I know of). The acting isn't much, but seeing three cowboys rope a T Rex -- and then seeing the T Rex fight an elephant -- that is cool. And "El Diablo," the little eohippus, is just too cute. Harryhausen's stop-motion animation is wonderful. Get the DVD with an interview in which he talks about how he did the cowboy-roping scene, and current animators/fx artists talk about he inspired them -- pretty fun. In a geeky kind of way.

The Valley of Gwangi is a film that, through cult enjoyment of its quality, has managed to overcome the problems that made it "forgotten" in motion pictures to enjoy its present status as a fantasy classic. Originally written by King Kong's Willis O'Brien, Gwangi's script was never filmed, but a copy owned by Ray Harryhausen stored in his garage was resurrected in 1966. With additional work by writer William Bast, The Valley Of Gwangi was approved by Kenneth Hyman of Seven Arts Inc, which had financed Harryhausen's film with Raquel Welsh, One Million Years B.C. and who had purchased into the Warner Brothers studio. Filming took place in Spain and lasted two years, mostly due to the time needed by Harryhausen to animate the dinosaurs. Given that the film employed over 300 animation shots (the most of any Harryhausen film), it was expected that release would not come until two years after principal photography had been completed. The extra time paid off in Harryhausen's best animation. Adding enormously were the superior sound FX employed by Warner Brothers, giving dinosaur voices far more menacing and believeable than those used by Columbia or Hammer; attention to peripheral sound FX is also striking, notably in the finale within the enormous cathedral, where the echo of Gwangi's breathing and footsteps adds greatly to the drama. The human cast also works well, notably star James Franciscus. The story involves the efforts of a struggling wild west show in circa-1900 Mexico. To boost attendance, owner T.J. Breckenridge (Gila Golan, cast in the film as a favor to Ken Hyman) has found a tiny horse - which turns out to be a prehistoric Eohippus, and which comes from a Forbidden Valley filled with dinosaurs. One is known as Gwangi, a belligerent allosaur that, after an extremely long chase that sidetracks to a bloody battle with a styracosaur, is captured and put on display in T.J.'s show, only to be set free and rampage through the nearby town. Harryhausen's animation is the film's highlight, but the performances, Erwin Hillier's cinematography, and Jerome Moross' superb score all add up to an immensely enjoyable film. It suffered, though, as Kenneth Hyman was let go during filming and new Warners management released the film without publicity and as part of a double-bill with a biker film, thus missing the youthful audience that was the film's target. The film was largely forgotten until cult attention in the 1980s and '90s elevated general interest and has made it a favorite of fantasy film buffs.

Okay, okay. I know. Cowboys and dinosaurs, right? Absolutely. I love this movie as much now as I did when I watched it thirty years ago as a child desperate for dinosaurs...any dinosaurs...to be depicted in films. Believe me, I watched so many creature features and let's be honest, most of them were pretty dull. The best one's were always with effects courtesy of the great Harryhausen, of course. 'Gwangi' is head and shoulders my favourite. Is that because of the acting talent in the movie? Er, 'fraid not. James Franciscus looks unnervingly like Dick Van Dyke and is just as annoying. Gila Golan, despite being dubbed through the whole movie, really struggles to convince as the owner of a Wild West show, or indeed a human being. But you don't watch a film like this for the actors, do you? So here's why this film is amazing. The tiny horse. The pterodactyl. The elephant slam down. The big lizards. And of course, Gwangi the Allosaurus. Fighting cowboys in Mexico. But really, for me, it's the tiny horse. Best bit of stop-motion this side of a tauntaun. The film cracks along, you can enjoy the slightly hokey dialogue, marvel at the performance of Laurence Naismith as the professor (I don't think he has tenure) and wish you too could find a tiny horse. Splendid.

Showman and adventurer James Franciscus is a bit of a jerk. His #1 love in life is making a buck and because of this he's lost a lot of friends along the way. When the story begins, he's reuniting with a lady he lost for this very reason. He's unsure whether to make things right with her and rekindle their love or screw her out of anything he can get! Along the way, he meets up with a weirdo paleontologist who is just daffy about primordial horses and the three of them happen upon a land where there are dinosaurs (mostly purple ones--like Barney) and they decide to bring some back to civilization--with predictable results. I've nearly all of Ray Harryhausen's films and I would have to say that "The Valley of Gwangi" is probably the worst--so I am at least glad I saved it for last! Why is it so poor? Well, it really isn't because the Harryhausen creations are bad (they're pretty typical actually) but because the story is so weak. The characters aren't that interesting, there are too many extended periods of dinosaurs aimlessly fighting one after another and the story seems like a re-tread of "King Kong". Plus who wants to see cowboys fighting dinosaurs?! Not particularly compelling.

Oh what the heck, I'll reveal the secret: this movie stinks! Yeah there are some nifty dinosaur effects that, for their time, were probably really exciting to watch. Now they don't cut it, but they're not terrible. They're just good enough to tolerate without being able to laugh at it. So they just sit there, and i sit watching this, not laughing, not excited, just, well, bored. It stinks! If I can exercise my Jay Sherman for a moment, the film really does. The box promises cowboys versus dinosaurs, and in very generic sense it delivers. Guys dressed like cowboys fight a couple of big dinosaurs. But really these guys are a bunch of sissies, and the hero is a loser (more on this later) and the dinosaurs are hardly intimidating. The plot is a yawner, and there isn't much technically wrong with it that's there to laugh at. It's all just gray and bland. After some dreadful night cinematography (Filmed in one and a half colors I called it), we get the plot which involves some people, doing stuff. That was what I caught. Oh and they are at the turn of the century in Mexico, so they at least dress like cowboys even if they don't act like it. So a bunch of these people, who I think were human, they go in the desert, and they stumble on these dinosaurs (after they find a miniature horse...I don't know, let's just move on). Then the movie degrades into a really pathetic King Kong ripoff in the final act. At that point I had lost the will to even keep my eyes at television level, and I drifted in and out of consciousness. The "hero" is played by the guy from Beneath the Planet of the Apes who essentially played Charlton Heston's part when Heston decided he didn't want to be in the sequel. He was picked cause, shock o' shocks, he looks exactly like Heston. That's about all he has going for him. I was really upset when he was the hero of the film cause all he does is glower, snear, bag the chick in the film (Who's named T.J...unfortunately she's not a prostitute or finally the origin of the name would have been revealed). Meanwhile his friend kills all the dinosaurs, saves the day numerous times, and what does he get for it? Not recognition, no nothing! And he dies, sacrificing himself for his friends! They don't even wait up for him while they escape! Boring, long, slowly paced, with little to enjoy until the film decides to carbon copy King Kong's script onto it's own, it's best to avoid this film unless you enjoy pain on the scale of dropping an anvil on your eyeball.

Shot in Technicolor by Erwin Hillier and in Dynamation, The Valley Of Gwangi sees Tuck Kirby (James Franciscus) and a team of cowboys get more than they bargained for when they enter a hidden valley in Mexico. For here, prehistoric creatures reside and the cowboys come up with the idea of capturing a Tyrannosaurus Rex to become the chief attraction in the circus they work at. The makers of Gwangi never hid their motivations or homages, from the off they wanted to nod towards King Kong whilst pairing the Western and Fantasy genres in the process. The result of which is an enjoyable if unfulfilled movie that again sees Ray Harryhausen's stop-motion creations save the day. Directed by Jim O'Connolly with a screenplay by William Bast, The Valley Of Gwangi suffers not because of its bonkers plot (this is after all why we watch this type of genre offering), but more because of the slow first half that threatens to put the viewer into torpor. Thankfully the film is saved by the afore mentioned Harryhausen who unleashes prehistoric joys on the B movie cast (tho Laurence Naismith is considerably better than the material given him). While the ending raises the adrenaline sufficiently enough to have made the wait worth while. Jerome Moross lifts from his brilliant score for The Big Country with mixed results; it just feels out of place here, even if it's stirring and pleasing to the ears. And the Almería, Andalucía location work in Spain is at one with the material to hand. Saturday afternoon monster fun to be enjoyed with either popcorn or something stronger from the drinks cupboard. 6/10
