Film Synopsis
Shortly after American scientist Steve Karnes has given a lecture warning of the dangers of marine nuclear testing a bomb is exploded in the ocean which will have devastating consequences. Near the site of the explosion, a prehistoric dinosaur is revived by a burst of radiation and goes on a killer rampage. Karnes' theory is that the dinosaur will eventually die from its exposure to radiation, but not before it has wreaked havoc on the city of London...© James Travers
