12 Most Iconic Moments In Jurassic Park Franchise History
10. The Dilophosaurus Attack - Jurassic Park
As the group embarked on their official tour of Jurassic Park and its exhibits, the first dinosaur that they were supposed to see was the Dilophosaurus. This would have been a dinosaur of relative obscurity to the audience, and was unfortunately a no show for Alan, Ellie, and the kids.
Thanks to the voice over in the tour car, we knew that such a dinosaur was dangerous and potentially deadly, thanks to its ability to spit venom at its enemies.
It's not until much later that we actually get to see the Dilophosaurus in the flesh. After Dennis Nedry got lost driving through the park in the rain, he was confronted by the creature, and ultimately got the comeuppance he deserved for putting everyone on the island in danger in the first place.
The dinosaur used its venom to perfection, spitting in Nedry's face to blind him, before somehow making it into his car and finishing the job to the sound of screams. This attack was both unique and horrifying, and proved that it wasn't just the big dinosaurs that the visitors had to worry about.
