Every kid loves old fashioned dinosaur B-Movies. I know I watched them taped off late night TV when I was young. If One Million Years B.C. has higher end production values afforded to it by Hammer Studios then Planet of Dinosaurs is on the other end of the spectrum in terms of budget.
It's pretty clear whatever minimal budget they had went towards the stop motion effects for the dinosaurs. There's actually plenty of them throughout the movies runtime so that's all good.
Everything else is shot on location in a wild area. Captures the idea of being stranded on a primitive planet I suppose.
Virtually no other set or location is used except for the movie opening with a starship crash and whatever resource they had to pull that if so minimal that it shows.
At least they managed to come up with something with plenty of dinosaur action.
That theme music as well though.

Any more recs would be appreciated.
