    • Trivia
      The live action scenes and a majority of the stop motion effects were all filmed in 1994, but David Allen, the director, had passed away due to cancer in 1999. The studio that was making this movie, Full Moon Studios, was also having financial issues so they had to keep postponing the production of the movie, until they ran out of money and had to shelf it. In 2019, after an online fundraising campaign, the original effects artist, Chris Endicott, returned to complete the remaining stop motion sequences.
    • Alternate versions
      Two edits were created, one for general release, and "The David Allen Version," which was compiled for home video. Running 7 minutes longer, it features several unfinished scenes in which storyboarded creatures are animated into the filmed footage. Notable scenes include an extended sequence in which the group tries to evade a dinosaur-like creature, a more extensive flashback scene in the UFO, and numerous additional moments with the creatures at the film's climax.

    Going back to the good old times

    Watching this movie I soon found it very familiar in it's production. It seemed to be the good old times of the 1980's when some very good movies were made. This one had very familiar music to what was produced in those times.

    I have now seen the IMDb review of michaelprescott-00547 and he enlighted me that this project originated in the late 70's but never saw the light then.

    A very nice movie was finally made and I can give this a sound 7 stars. I see that another movie is made or being made this year (2024) by David Allen, but on checking the information, it is a documentary on this movie and probably why it took so long to come to fruition.
