This is a peripheral Matt Drudge-like posting and I'm sorry, but as soon as I heard the term "dino-chickens" I was hooked. In my entire life I've never heard this term, and I'm speaking as a guy who once wrote a Roger Corman- or George Pal-type script called Killer Chickens. The size of ostriches, out for blood, looking to settle a score with humans...screaming overall-clad victims being chased around the barnyard and pecked to death. I would honestly pay to see this movie if somebody made it.

Speaking of which, I wish more attention had been paid to Roger Corman's receiving a lifetime achievement Oscar the other night. Yes, the man has a lot of schlock to his credit, but he has also produced and directed some quality films. I'm especially fond of X: The Man with X-Ray Eyes. Corman is also the greatest recognizer/facilitator of talent Hollywood ever produced, except for, arguably, Irving Thalberg.

Plus, you're absolutely right. In his prime, Corman would have been on dino-chickens like ugly on an ape.

It was already made by Troma and called "Poultrygeist"

Poultrygeist -Night of the Chicken Dead was more mutant chicken people running amok at KFC than a classic attack of the giant animals flick. Still, was a pretty fun movie, especially by Troma standards.

Phew! I don't have to worry about people having furry babies. This video clip alleviated the only fear I have in life. Thank you, Jeff.

And the point of Dino-chickens is?

George, dino-chickens don't have to have a point. That's why they're dino-chickens.

Have you ever been to a theme park or county fair where they serve those mutant, giant turkey legs? Lots of money in huge poultry, I'm guessing. Imagine how much Hooters could make with chicken wings the size of a ping pong paddle.
