Raptor is a 2001 direct-to-video horror film directed by Jim Wynorski (under the name Jay Andrews) and produced by Roger Corman. The film recycles footage from a variety of Corman's earlier dinosaur horror films, including Carnosaur, Carnosaur 2 and Carnosaur 3: Primal Species. Combined with footage which was filmed in the Vasquez Rocks Natural Area Park in Agua Dulce, California, the film focuses on a small town sheriff (Eric Roberts) and an animal control officer (Melissa Brasselle), who investigate a series of deaths by genetically engineered dinosaurs that escape from a nearby laboratory. As they struggle to bring the deaths under control, they must face off against the scientist who created them (Corbin Bernsen). Raptor was awarded a 2001 Galaxy Award.
