King of the Lost World

2005 · 85 min

A cheap, fast-paced monster romp that feels like a campy B-movie, with laughable effects and a constant sense of peril.

Overview: In this modern retelling of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's fantasy action-adventure classic, a commercial airliner crashes deep in the heart of the Amazon. Now, the survivors must face a mysterious and hostile world inhabited by giant scorpions, dragons, and a simian beast that stands ten stories tall.
How it feels: Campy, tense, absurd and dark. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Survival, isolation, power, violence
Content: Mild violence, gore and language. No sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
