Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesWriter/director Stewart Raffill said in an interview that the idea for this film only happened because they had access to a full size T-Rex animatronic. A guy came to him who owned theatres in South America and he said he had the T-Rex that was going to a park in Texas. The eyes worked. The arms moved. The head moved. He told Rafill he wanted to use it to make a movie. Rafill asked what the story was and the guy said there wasn't one yet, but they had to start filming within the month because he only had the T-Rex for two weeks. So Rafill wrote the story in a week and worked on the script as they filmed. He even said he was constantly asking the cast and crew if they have anything better they could add.
- GaffesAlthough Denise Richards' character is named Tammy in the film, the beginning and end credits list her as "Tanny". That is the name used in the original title, "Tanny and the Teenage T-Rex", as given in the uncut version released on 4K and Blu-ray by Vinegar Syndrome.
- Versions alternativesIn 2017, a 35mm print of an alternate, pre-censorship cut of the film was discovered, under the title Tanny and the Teenage T-Rex. This version features the long-rumored scenes of gore and extreme violence that were sloppily edited from the film in order to attain a PG-13 rating. Scenes include various moments of excessive bloodshed and a graphic brain transplant, as well as a great deal more profanity. In total it runs six minutes longer than the cut that appeared on VHS in 1994. Vinegar Syndrome scanned and restored the film at 4K resolution, and gave it a limited theatrical re-release, and Blu-Ray/Ultra HD release in the fall of 2019.

Commentaire à la une
I was channel surfing the other night on DirectTV, and came across this movie with the wacky title. When I read the nutty plot description and noticed that it starred Ellen Dubin (from Lexx) and Denise Richards in an early role, I selected it out of curiosity. I expected to watch it for maybe five minutes and then get bored and turn to something else. I ended up, however, being really surprised by how entertaining I found this film to be. I knew I had to see what other people at IMDb thought about it. And just as I expected, almost everyone here hated it. I'm not surprised that most people don't "get" this movie. Those without any sense of camp will have no appreciation for it.
Let me explain something to everyone: This movie is bad, and the people who wrote and directed it KNEW that they were making a bad movie. Most of the characters and things that go on in it are totally, utterly ridiculous, and the filmmakers obviously reveled in this fact, to a degree of aggressive silliness. Realism and reality have little to do with this film. Basically, it's a send-up of other B-movies--romance, sci-fi, horror, etc--and a clever one at that. But apparently very few seem to have recognized it as such. Do people really think that the filmmakers were just too dumb not to realize that real-life funeral-goers would have noticed a huge T-rex watching the burial service from behind some shrubs just a few yards away? Or that the creepiness of the tender love scenes between Tammy and her grotesque dinosaur "boyfriend" was an accident? The movie's deliberate outrageousness and low-mindedness is what makes this movie fun and is the source of some of its funniest moments. For the first half of the film, I couldn't believe what I was watching, and couldn't believe that anyone would make a film like this.
And then I loved it!
