Two Lost Worlds

Two Lost Worlds is a 1951 science fiction/adventure film directed by Norman Dawn and starring James Arness and Kasey Rogers. The film was produced independently by Boris Petroff, who wrote the original story, which was adapted by Phyllis Parker and Tom Hubbard into a screenplay written by Hubbard. The film was distributed by Eagle-Lion Films.

On August 16, 1830 the American clipper ship Hamilton Queen sails from Salem bound for the East Indies. The ship is attacked by pirates in the New Hebrides and the ship's mate Kirk Hamilton is wounded in the leg. The clipper outruns the pirate ship and Captain Tallman heads to Queensland, Australia so that Kirk can receive medical treatment.

While convalescing, Kirk meets and falls in love with Elaine Jeffries, the fiancée of rancher Martin Shannon. A romantic rivalry develops, and the pirates who attacked Kirk and his ship kidnap Elaine, along with her friend, Nancy Holden. Kirk and Shannon pursue the pirates and find themselves on a volcanic island inhabited by dinosaurs. After a short time on the island, they are forced to leave as the volcano erupts. During the disaster, Nancy is killed by an avalanche.

The film contains no original dinosaur effects; the dinosaur scenes were culled from stock footage created for the film One Million B.C. (1940).

The film was shot in Red Rock Canyon State Park.
