Campout Cinema: Jurassic Park
Recommended
Even though you already know what happens—things go horribly awry at a dinosaur theme park, chaos ensues, some people are killed and eaten, often simultaneously, others narrowly escape. And even though the film’s then-groundbreaking computer-generated imagery and animatronic dinos are child’s play compared to what you see in the sequels, Jurassic Park (the 1993 original) still looks pretty good. It delivers the same thrill ride of action that’s pretty much nonstop once that T. rex breaks through the de-electricized fence, Jeff Goldblum is still his awesome self, and Ariana Richards is still annoying as fuck and will spur you into screaming at the screen with each of her character’s panicked, dumb decisions.
