  A lost world that time forgot populated by prehistoric creatures not seen on this earth for 50 million years - that is the astonishing possibility presented by Professor George Edward Challenger (Patrick Bergin) to the Royal Geographic Society of London England. A gruff impossible man Challenger calls for an expedition to prove - or disprove - this incredible claim first presented by Professor White who died on a prior expedition to this supposed lost world. Joined by the effervescent reporter Edward D. Malon the dashing big game hunter Peter Roxton Challenger's nemesis and Professor White's vivacious daughter Amanda (Jayne Heitmeyer) Challenger sets off on a journey to the edge of the earth. The explorers find a land-locked island that time and evolution forgot. By creating a primitive hot-air balloon the hardy adventurers manage to enter this dark cauldron of humanity's infancy venturing on to explore a world of stegosaurs and t-rex brontosaurs and raptors and finally make contact with a race of humanity's ancestors who make human sacrifices to their dinosaur gods. Beaten battered but triumphant Challenger and Amanda White return to England - but report their expedition as a failure. Humanity they have decided is not yet ready for the wonders they have seen.
