Tammy and the T-Rex

It’s the 25th Anniversary of 2019’s most unbelievable repertory film discovery. Directed by Stewart Raffill „Tammy and the T-Rex” is a love story as old as time. Tammy (Denis Richards) is a popular high school kid whose life gets turned upside down after her handsome boyfriend gets mauled alive by lions. Luckily, or sadly, an evil scientist manages to secretly transfer the boy’s brain into a giant animatronic T-Rex, and things get weird from here on out. Distributed as a family friendly PG-13 version back in the day, this little so-bad-it’s-good romantic horror comedy recently exploded on the genre film scene after a remastered and gore-filled uncut version was finally released. In the titular role we see Denise Richards („Wild Things”, „007 in The World is Not Enough”), and the poor T-Rex boyfriend is played by non other than Paul Walker of the „Fast and Furious” fame.
