Scorpius Gigantus is a 2006 American science-fiction film from producer Roger Corman directed by Tommy Withrow. It was a remake of Carnosaur 3 . [1] [2]
Reel Film called it "an effort that's pretty much a wash on every level, and it hardly seems likely that Roger Corman himself would be able to muster up a convincing recommendation." [3]
Dread Central said the film "doesn’t bring anything new to the formula, nor does it even aspire to do so. That would be acceptable if it at least did a good job being a retread. It doesn’t." [4]
