The first trailer is out for Fred Olen Ray and Chris Ray's new monster movie "Reptisaurus." It looks like a fun film that combines the elements of "Reign of Fire", "The Elementals" (An unmade Ray Harryhausen film) and about a dozen cheaply made Sci Fi Channel monster films. Not to say that "Reptisaurus" will be a stinker, au contraire, I believe the film will be a hoot. It sure is good to see Gil Gerard again.
I really like the scene with the fighter jets and the monster. That looked like a very well done sequence. Some of the other parts looked a bit cheesy, but then again this isn't some big-budget Hollywood epic. It is good to see that independent projects are starting to catch up with the big guys in the effects department, due mostly to the development of reasonably priced CGI software. This is giving a lot of film makers an opportunity to live out their dreams, where not too long ago, projects like this would have been impossible to accomplish.
Count me in on this one!

This looks great!!!! The fact that anyone else even remembers the Reptisaurus comic makes me happy to be alive, and in what world does Fred Olen Ray + Gil Gerard not equal Pure Joy?
