11:00: The movie ends with the remaining four members of the crew getting beamed up to the ship as the final horde of raptors close in. Lead Guy punches Evil Ship Commander in the face, and the credits roll.
This was the worst Sci-Fi Original I've seen to date. Thank God Raptor Island is on now. And they've got a real leading man starring in this bad boy - Lorenzo Lamas.
Holy Shit Movies
Where we venerate SyFy Originals

10:53 This movie is like a dream. Things just keep happening, and I don't understand how or why. Nobody seems to have any sort of motive to be doing what they are doing, new characters appear and disappear out of thin air, and the laws of physics don't apply. In fact, I've been watching this movie for almost two hours and I still am not really sure what its about.
10:48: Lava. So non-Weird Science chick and the leader fell in to this underground cavern, which is where all the raptors live. The chick discerned that this was their nest, and the old rulers of this world (the giant termites) thought they could control them by building on top of their nest. Or something.
Next scene, they're running through the cave, and start throwing C4 in every direction. The leader guy pushes a red button, the C4 explodes, and that somehow makes a fucking volcano erupt. Instantaneously. Fucking lava everywhere, raptors drowning in it.
Nothing makes sense. And Pappy just blew himself up to take out a raptor. His dying line: "I like my dinosaur well done." Godspeed, Pappy.

9:55: One of the team members was getting eaten by something way bigger than a raptor, but he got away when the non-Weird Science chick with the horrible accent threw a grenade she made out of batteries and LED lights at the dinosaur. Other things that have happened:
- Science guy made a raptor anti-venom.
- There's a "radiation storm" going on.
- Pappy raped the chick from Weird Science.*
*Didn't actually happen, but you can tell Pappy's all about her.

9:44: The movie's a bit slow and jumping around a bit. Much more so than your average Sci-Fi Orig. So Jake and I just discussed whether or not I'd be angry with him if he created a fake e-Harmony account in my name, then had me legally marry some chick he met for me through e-Harmony by stealing my Social Security number and getting us married over the Internet. Then, when she shows up, it turns out she's not actually in love with me, but I fall in love with her.
I decided that yes, I'd be pissed off if this happened. But I think we could pitch it to Sci-Fi - just make the e-Harmony chick a velociraptor. Let's call it e-Raptory.
