Pre-viewed for quality and played great on my JVC S-vhs deck, cassette is nice and clean too. Box has a crease down the left spine and a lighter one 1/2 way down the right spine. Out Of Print and no longer being manufactured. Full screen version is perfect for old school televisions as it will fill your square frame. Very good adaptation of the famous Professor Challenger fantasy-adventure by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (creator of 'Sherlock Holmes'), with John Rhys-Davies giving a vigorous performance as Challenger and David Warner equally effective as his rival. In 1912, pursuing rumours of fantastic beasts sighted deep in the African interior, the maverick scientist and his skeptical rival set out to explore the mysteries of a land forgotten by time. Accompanied by an ambitious writer (Eric McCormic), a beautiful photographer (Tamara Goeski), a stowaway boy (Darren Peter Mercer) and native girl Nathania Stanford, the expedition makes a perilous ascent to an uncharted plateau. There, cut off from civilization, their quest suddenly becomes a fight for survival--against native tribes and monstrous dinosaurs! Peter Welbeck's telescript is slanted for family viewing and has modern save-the-species overtones.
