Fantasy adventure starring James Franciscus and Gila Golan. After a gypsy discovers a rare diminutive horse in Mexico, members of a Wild West show enter a mysterious valley where time has stood still for millions of years.
An unsuccessful touring circus encounters a forbidden valley full of prehistoric animals, and captures its massive allosaurus leader. Guess what - it escapes to terrorise the cast. A very watchable fantasy adventure, though as with other films Ray Harryhausen had a hand in, the stop-motion special effects put the sketchily rendered human characters and routine plot in the shade. At least, the score from The Big Country composer Jerome Moross stirs the blood occasionally, too.
