Tammy and the T-Rex is just a ridiculous movie that shouldn't be taken too seriously. Director Stewart Raffill access to an animatronic T Rex through some acquaintance before it went to a park in Texas. So he wrote a script in a week and started filming, and it shows. Tammy's new boyfriend Michael gets attacked by her ex-boyfriend Billy and eventually Billy dumps Michael in a wild animal park where he is attacked by a lion. While Michael is in a comatose state at the hospital, the oddball Dr. Gunther Wachenstein and his assistant Helga cut Michael's brain out and stick it inside the head of an animatronic T-Rex, giving Michael 'immortality' as a new T-Rex who is intent on destroying his enemies. Tammy eventually figures out that Michael's brain is inside and she and her friend Byron try to help find him a new body before the T-Rex body is destroyed. Or something. For being so dumb, it was pretty amusing. Although the added gore helped up the entertainment factor tenfold. If I had paid real money to see the non-gore version in the theater, I might have written a terse letter to the studio for wasting my precious time. Anyway, I'd give this gory original cut 6 shots of alcohol directly on the brain out of 10.
