Reviews:
” …it’s mostly the women peering into cells which contain the creatures, while Jahns pontificates. Then, in the second half, it’s the women running along corridors, intercut with dinosaurs running along poorly-rendered CGI versions of those corridors […] a mercifully terse sixty-eight minutes of largely uninterrupted awful. For all its many flaws, Dinosaur Hotel did at least make an effort to tell a coherent story (albeit badly).” Rating: D- Film Blitz
“The plot of this “film” only gets worse as the film goes on. The “actors” are absolutely bereft of any acting skill or craft whatsoever, particularly in the cases of Captain Ringmaster and Idiots # 1 and 2. The only halfway decent thing about the movie would be the dinosaur effects. They are far from anything in films like Jurassic Park, but compared to everything else in this utter rubbish, the special effects seem Oscar-worthy.” 1 out of 10, tmccull52
“Ms. Starbuck, Ms. Staerck, and Ms. Taylor are stunning and look really great running from danger in their black get-ups. Mr. Massey is quirky and weird as a weird and quirky mad scientist. This is a fun one. Enjoy a creature feature tonight and watch the dinosaur epic Dinosaur Prison.” Zisi Emporium for B Movies
