Time Travel through the Bible

Despite the title (and having Jonathan Frakes as the narrator) these Bible stories have no time travel. —Michael Main
But as it is with your dreams and mine, sometimes you have to be strong and fight for them.

Dinosaur Valley Girls

  • written and directed by Donald F. Glut
  • (unknown release details, 1996)
Action-movie hero Tony Markham is tossed by a magic talisman into a time of dinosaurs, cavemen, and sex-starved cavewomen (including one named Buf-Fee) who shave their legs with clam shells. Someday I must decide whether movies with simultaneous dinosaurs and cavemen can be classified as time travel or must always be relegated to mere fantasy. —Michael Main
That skull you saw, those slabs and more, are all carbon-dated at less than a million years old. My only explanation is that there once existed a place I call Dinosaur Valley, where unknown forces somehow brought together creatures from different times and places.
Three women in hide bikinis pose seductively in front of a much larger woman (but no dinosaurs).
