Blu-ray Review: Prehysteria! (1993)

Museum curator Rico Sarno (Stephen Lee) enters a forbidden South American temple and finds a clutch of small dinosaur eggs, which he of course out right steals and heads back up North pronto. Meanwhile single father Frank Taylor (Brett Cullen) tries to keep his farm going by selling fossils to Sarno (as farmers do), and keeping his kids; Kelly Bundy with the slut-meter turned down to like one (okay, maybe two) Monica (Samantha Mills) and Elvis-obsessed Jerry (Austin O’Brien), who spends his days air guitarin’ and lip synching to some sort of rough approximation of an Elvis song whose main lyrics consist of “uh-huh” and “yeah”.

Anyway those evil bastards succeed, but our heroes…along with plucky archaeologist Leda (the legendary Barbara Crampton) discover a hidden mega-robot (this one humanoid in apperance)…which of course leads to a nice bout of robot asskickery! Simply put;
