Editorial Review:
Two expeditions make their way into the heart of a forest near Mt. Ararat in Turkey - home of a dormant volcano that holds within itself a deadly secret that's been asleep for millions of years: un-hatched pterodactyl eggs! On a man hunt for a dangerous terrorist, Captain Bergen (Coolio) leads his military Special Ops unit deeper into the forest, while Professor Lovecraft (Cameron Daddo) and his team of scientists search for clues to the past when they make a dangerous discovery. Faced with the threat of the flesh eating predators, both groups come to the realization that they must rely on one another if they plan to make it out of the forest alive! With non-stop action and explosive graphics, Pterodactyl will make your fear take flight!

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Pretty Good Movie...
I would say that this movie is pretty dang good. A group of people go into the wilderness of Turkey and end up being attacked by a swarm of Pterodactyls. The dinosaurs are pretty good looking and a good storyline. The only bad part is that there is way too much gore. Many people are either cut in half or decapitated by the Pterodactyls. Some mild language, no f-words.
My rating=Rated R for strong violence/gore, mild language, and an attempted rape.
Rating:  - Funny, but not what you think.
Okay, like almost all of SciFi Channel's "originals," this is a steaming pile of cinematic feces. But I will admit that the writers had fun with their character's names. Almost all of their names were famous science fiction writers: Lovecraft, Serling, Heinlein, Yolen, Bradbury, Lem, Zelazny, Donaldson, Burroughs, Clarke, and Herbert.
Oh, and it should've been called Pteranodon, since pterodactyls didn't have the backward pointing crest.
Rating:  - My Review of bad movies, but they can be the best
I'm a monster freak Of the Jurassic age, what can I say. If it has a prehistoric like monster its gotta be entertaining as long as the producers can make it look half way believable.
Rating:  - You have to know what you're picking up
When you pick up a movie to watch and on the back cover is a pterodactyl chasing a white SUV and on the front is a dinosaur eye and a reptile hatching from an egg, you kind of have to know what to expect here. Yes, there are some cheesy special effects, but the pterodactyls are actually done pretty well. Sure, there is some weak acting, but then there is some pretty sincere acting too. There is plenty of gore, probably more than necessary but hey..I could forgive that. The film delivers in what ... Read More
Rating: - This Ain't "Jurassic Park," Folks!
Nope, this is "Pterodactyl," a film where a group of American college students under the guidance of Cameron Daddo and a US Special Ops force headed up by Coolio (yeah, Coolio) become unlikely teammates when they faceoff against "terror from above." In all honesty, the flick isn't very bad. The students are in Turkey looking for fossils. The soldiers are out to nab some terrorists. When a local volcano rattles loose a few old dinosaur eggs, they hatch and become very mean, very hungry pterodactyls. ... Read More
