On This Day: March 22 1985 Baby Secret of the Lost Legend Premiered in Theaters
On this day March 22 1985 the family adventure film Baby Secret of the Lost Legend premiered in theaters. Directed by Bill L. Norton the movie starred William Katt Sean Young and Patrick McGoohan in a story about a young couple who discover a living family of dinosaurs in the African jungle.

Combining adventure with sci-fi elements the film followed the couple as they attempted to protect a baby dinosaur from a ruthless scientist and government forces. While not a major blockbuster Baby Secret of the Lost Legend gained a following among dinosaur movie fans and became a staple of 80s family adventure films.

Fun fact: The dinosaur effects were created using animatronics and puppetry rather than stop-motion or CGI making them a unique part of 80s practical effects.

Trivia question: What 1993 blockbuster film revolutionized dinosaur effects with groundbreaking CGI?
