First clip from dino mash-up ‘Jurassic Games’

The dinomite mash-up of the summer, The Jurassic Games stars Ryan Merriman (Final Destination 3) and Perrey Reeves (Entourage), and imagines a world set in the near future wherein ten Death Row convicts are chosen to compete in the titular games, the ultimate virtual reality game show that pits its players against dinosaurs and each other. However there is a catch…

If you die in the virtual game, you also die in reality; and for Anthony Tucker (Adam Hampton), survival is his one chance to be reunited with his children after having been wrongfully imprisoned for the murder of his wife. As the devious The Host continues adding improbable challenges, the characters will find the odds stacked against them as only one victor can emerge as winner and reclaim their freedom.

Every year, 10 of the world’s most lethal death row criminals are chosen to compete for their freedom in The Jurassic Games, a television show where contestants must survive against a variety of ferocious dinosaurs. The players all die gruesomely in the game zone except for one, the last one standing, the winner, who is granted not only his freedom, but fame and fortune. Survive the dinosaurs. Survive each other. Survive…The Jurassic Games.

The Jurassic Games, the third film from Emmy Award-winning director Ryan Bellgardt (Gremlin, Army of Frankensteins), is released on DVD in the UK on May 21st and in the US on Digital June 12th and DVD July 3rd. Check out the first clip from the film below:
