Synopsis:
Marines Larry and Charlie escape from the island of dinosaurs is a submarine. However, the sub is captured by an eel-like dinosaur. The marines exit the sub via the torpedo tubes, then plant explosives which kill the creature. The submarine is released, but the damage requires them to remain near the island until repairs can be made.
Once the submarine reaches the island, it is attacked by another dinosaur. Charlie and Larry head inland again hoping to find a way to call for help. They are attacked by more dinosaurs, many of which they kill with explosives. Eventually they are picked up by a plane. To make their final escape, the marines fight off another flying monster using a bazooka.
