Phillip Reed wants to charter Barton MacLane's boat, with the backing of Virginia Grey. When he was a flier during the war, he spotted an island with prehistoric dinosaurs roaming it. Maclane believes him, because Richard Denning landed on the island. No one else made it out alive. So they all go to the island, where there are lots of the critters, and their launch is wrecked.
It starts out like KING KONG, but MacLane turns into Wolf Larsen and once there, it never gets off the island of the rubber-suited monsters; one of performers passed out from heat exhaustion and later died. With that snarked, the performers are excellent, and manage to carry it off. With Ray Corrigan as a gorilla, Snub Pollard as a barfly, it's a decent B movie.
