What if Vietnam wasn’t just hell — but full of dinosaurs?
That’s the wild premise of Primitive War, based on Ethan Pettus’s cult novel and directed by Luke Sparke.
Tamzyn and Miranda unpack the film’s blend of war drama and creature feature, from its surprisingly serious tone to the uncanny CGI raptors that occasionally break the spell.
Made on the Gold Coast with a modest budget, the film swings big on concept but struggles under its 2-hour-plus runtime.
Still, feathered dinos and gritty tension make it an ambitious addition to Australia’s growing genre scene.
