I was going through a great deal of emotional turmoil, and my family was about to move to another state when my stepfather got a new job. Legend came out on VHS in the US during a major transition in my life. Just sitting here writing this now, I may have to watch the movie again as soon as I am finished.

The Legend Of Dinosaurs And Monster Birds is readily available on DVD from Tokyo Shock with an English dub and original Japanese audio with subtitles.I'm one of maybe four people that I can confirm believe this movie to be an underappreciated classic. During MST3K's "trial run" on TV KTMA, they skewered this film. The Legend Of Dinosaurs And Monster Birds is an obscure film and was extremely hard to find for a while. The pterodactyl fighting the plesiosaur is very poorly done and looks very fake.
