Summary: Good monster flick
Review: The movie was funny at times and just really stupid at others. I like the janitor and the hot blonde in the movie. But the added dramatic acting was to much. Good footage a of some WWII british tanks and artillery. The monster was no Godzilla.

Summary: A Sublime Stinker
Review: This classic piece of junk has withstood the test of time to reign as #1 in the "so bad it's great" category. The premise is totally ridiculous, the locations are mind-numbingly dull and colorless, the acting is stinkeroo all the way, and the monster is a hernia-inducing sock puppet that terrorizes....Copenhagen.
A must see for all true afficionados of cinematic garbage. I rate the MOVIE a 1, but the whole experience rates a 10.

Summary: A Great Classic !
Review: This is a great science fiction movie.It seems to be a remake of Godzilla made in Denmark . The funny puppet is a little goofy.But the parts were Reptilicus' acid slime hits the screen is good .The person that Reptilicus eats is animated like a cartoon . In the end Reptilicus gets killed with a drug . Or did he ? Well , I don't want to spoil anymore , so you can just see it yourself . If you like old giant monster movies , you might like this .

Review: This is actually a very, very bad movie, but it's great, great fun. You've seen clips from it on so many different T.V. shows, you probably already know the title monster, even though you never knew where he came from.Sid Pink produced this little B-movie gem, the same man who brought you The Angry Red Planet and other similarly cheap space-operas, and he produced it in Denmark - with a Danish cast - and released it through American International Pictures, which should tell you absolutely everything you need to know about it. But if it doesn't: Denmark drills up a bit of raw flesh during a probe for oil, which turns out to be from the title dinosaur beastie. They eventually pull up a whole tail, and freeze-dry it for later study - or a midnight snack, I'm not sure which. Needless to say, the spectacularly unfunny janitor forgets to turn the freezer unit back on after a power outage (how unfunny is he? his major bit of comic business is sticking his hand in the electric eel tank), and Reptilicus spoils by morning. No, we couldn't be so lucky. Reptilicus re-grows from his severed tail, and of course gets up and goes for a walk across the Danish countryside after a while, hawking up acid phleghm and disintegrating lots of idle gawkers. The military, needless to say, just has to get in on the fun - here's all this great carnage and destruction, and they weren't even invited! - and blasts bits and pieces of Reptilicus all over the place, so we can have a sequel (which, probably thankfully, we didn't) after one of the lizard-bits regenerates to become Reptilicus II. What makes this one such a kick in the pants is the Danish production - which is too silly to describe, really - and the title monster - which is even sillier. Reptilicus is an obvious marionette dragon, that moves very unconvincingly across the countryside like a stop-and-start inchworm, head bobbing up and down and making a throaty "caw" like some kind of demonic buzzard. And I'm not kidding about the acid phleghm. You really gotta see that. This is a Mystery Science Theater event, waiting to happen. Don't let them beat you to the punch. Take Reptilicus home with you, and enjoy countless man-hours (that could be spent doing anything more productive, like, I dunno, counting smashed spiders on the ceiling) snarking at the cheesy beastie, while you snarf down your favorite bag of chips.

Summary: omg!
Review: this is the worst movie i have ever seen! IT IS SO BAD! THERE IS NOT A DUMBER MOVIE IN THE WORLD! That's EXACTLY why you should watch it! you can tell the people are saying the english words, but the voices are off. The monster escapes from the "AKVARIUM" and there is no explination for WHY IT IS THERE!!! If you like crappy old sci-fi, you have to own this one.

Summary: corrections on an earlier review
Review: This is to correct four fact errors on an otherwise excellent review by Bruce Rux of Aurora, Colorado posted on May 29th, 2002.
Mistake #1: The review says the Danes were probing for oil when in fact they were mining for copper.
Mistake #2: The review says they pulled up the monster's entire tail when in fact they only unearthed the tip of the tail which later regenerated into Reptilicus.
Mistake #3: The review says the "janitor" was responsible for the thawing of the monster when it was actually Dr. Dalby who allowed it to happen. The night watchman (Peterson) (sp?) was actually relieved of his duties in that part of the building by Dr. Dalby earlier that evening. Peterson was not at fault.
Mistake #4: The review states that the army blew bits and pieces of Reptilicus "all over the place" but this, too, is not accurate. They actually blew off one of the beast's appendages which later was seen throbbing under the ocean at the films end.
Mistakes notwithstanding, I thoroughly enjoyed Mr. Rux's review of the film. The wonderfully bad movie is playing in my VCR as I write this! If you love bad movies, this is a must!

Summary: Ready for Mystery Science Theater
Review: This ludicrous movie features Danish beachgoers, a Tivoli caberet act, and a monster which is either marionette or puppet. It looks like a dragon (and I saw no evidence of it being a link between reptile and mammal). I laughed quite often during this flick. Especially enjoyable scenes include a traditionally dressed Danish family being attacked in their cottage, Peterson reacting to the dragon escaping, and the Pythonesque end credits. Watch out for Peterson operating the drawbridge. Big monster fans, this one is not to be missed.

Summary: Beware!!
Review: We knew there was something wrong when we checked out the DVD and the BlockBuster employee said, "Good luck with that one!" with a smirk on her face. If you want to know why MST3K hasn't seen this one yet, just watch the attack on the farm scene. Words fail me. Let's just put it this way: It's better to watch the film in French, especially if you don't understand French.
