The 'Dino-Movie For Adults' For Everyone Who Finds 'Jurassic Park' Too Mild
Everything seems to be going wrong: a military unit discovers dinosaurs during a secret mission in the Vietnam War.
After a reasonably successful theatrical release in the United States, Primitive War will soon be available on Video on Demand. This war film featuring dinosaurs was released by Samuel Goldwyn Films and performed unexpectedly well during its limited theatrical run.
During its U.S. premiere on August 21, Primitive War attracted full theaters and grossed over 1 million dollars. The film was compared on social media to Predator, but with dinosaurs instead.
The film is based on the novel of the same name by Ethan Pettus and is set in 1968, during the Vietnam War. A reconnaissance unit known as Vulture Squad is sent on a mission to locate a missing platoon, but deep in the jungle, they make a life-threatening discovery: dinosaurs.
Directed by Luke Sparke, known for Occupation, the cast includes Ryan Kwanten, Tricia Helfer, Nick Wechsler, and Jeremy Piven. The film received a positive reception from audiences, earning an 86 percent rating on the Popcorn meter.
The first trailer of Primitive War garnered over a million views within 24 hours. "The responses have been great so far," said director Sparke. "I hope the VOD release brings the film to even more fans. It’s a bizarre film, but apparently one that many people want to see." To celebrate the VOD release, the new trailer has been released.
