when my wife and I were first moving in together, i was helping her go through old games at her family’s place and she found some PS2 game or something she’d been looking for for YEARS, but instead of the game inside it was a DVD of Theodore Rex that a friend lent her 10+ years before 💀

Found this while looking up Theodore Rex, so here's a counter weird film. Tammy and the T-Rex is a film where Tammy's boyfriend dies via a lion/jaguar enclosure. A mad scientist takes his brain and puts it into an animatronic T-Rex, which goes on a murder spree in revenge of those that killed him.
