My grandma told me that she saw a movie at around age 6 in which a big dinosaur rampaged through a city and picked up skyscrapers in its hand. For years she was afraid of “dinosawers”.

This would have been around 1933 or 1934 so NOT Godzilla which was my 1st guess.

Any ideas what film it was?

There were some dinosaurs in the original 1933 King Kong so it could be a 6 year old confusing 2 different parts of the movie

@gbargoud yeah, could be! I’ll see if she remembers King Kong being in it

@janellecshane @gbargoud there was a version of The Lost World in 1925. At least one of the Black and White versions had dinosaurs running amok in London
