      Audience Member Guy Madison is fun to stare at,... I mean The MST3K version is hilarious Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 05/23/18 Full Review Audience Member Did you think the genre mash-up "Cowboys vs. Aliens" was original and clever? Well about 40 years earlier there was this fun Cowboys vs. Monster flick. Actually it's a story about a bunch of vaqueros who find themselves face-to-face with an allosaurus who's been killing their herd. The allosaurus doesn't actually show up until near the end of the film and a lot of time is spent on the vaqueros trying to figure out what's happening to their herd. That part of the film isn't all that compelling, but once the stop motion allosaurus shows up, this film is a whole heck of a lot of fun! Filmed in Regiscope! and was followed up with "The Valley of Gwangi" by Ray Harryhausen. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I could never imagined a movie much worse. A western meets a bad claymation monster movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Beast aka dinosaur aka lame Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie feels like a typical western that was written and then as an afterthought, the producers said, "hey lets through a dinosaur in here. They're cool right?" That's a terrible way to approach your gimmick movie. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Not too great. The dinosaur doesn't appear until the last act, and while the final climax with it is fun and intense, it's not the best. The stop-motion is rather poor and the editing is horrid. The rest of the film is fairly dull with little plot and terrible pacing. It's watchable, but most of the times you'll just want to skip to the end.
