Review of Lost Continent (1951) by Anthony W — 21 Aug 2013
Lost Continent is another in a long line of movies about a group of men crash landing on an island and discovering dinosaurs. Well, this movie is that, but it can't even stay on track with its own story.
It goes in a lot of different directions and ends up being a movie about a bunch of people climbing rocks and mountains all of the time to get to wherever it is that they're going. The movie was reportedly shot in a matter of days and used a bit of stock footage to fill in the rest of the details.
It's unsurprising that the quality ended up being so awful. Even with the presence of Cesar Romero and Hugh Beaumont, this one just isn't all that interesting. It was featured on an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000 where many people discovered it for the first time.
Otherwise, I'd say that it would most likely be forgotten.
