Wow. I knew the FX were low rent, but the " acting ", I had forgotten just how bad. So very, very bad.

And a show of how dated the series is, all the dinosaurs are shown as slower, tail dragging lizards - cold bloods, and not the more active, warm blooded critter, we now know they were.

Yup, it's bad. But if you can't find the campy, fun
style of the show charming then that too is bad. I love Land of the Lost. I'd love to do a film in nothing but chroma-key. Back then it was an expensive new special FX tool. Now it's probably cheaper than free to do.

Sleaztack is lookin old.

Now I remember why I couldn't stand to watch it as a kid.

Like an extra-annoyning Gillgans Island or Lost in Space, without the acting and special effects.
