Triad Productions brings you this 1925 silent film adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's book. The movie stars Wallace Beery as Professor Challenger and was directed by Harry O. Hoyt. The film features pioneering stop motion special effects by Willis O'Brien who later imployed those same techniques in King Kong. The Plot: The journal of explorer Maple White is recovered from a plateau in South America featuring sketches of dinosaurs, which is enough proof for the eccentric Professor Challenger that dinosaurs still walk the earth. The adventure begins. In 1998 the film was deemed culturally, historically or aesthetically significant by the Library of Congress and selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry
