ok of the family in SAn diego and why did they kill Eddie off?


what happens to the Family in SAn Diego whos dog is eaten when the t rex drinks out of their pool?

why did they kill Eddie off, as the tranquilizer gun was stuck in the net and if it wasnt he may have had a chance, would he have?

reply

Nothing. They get a new dog.

Because the script said so. Yes, obviously he would've had a better chance.

Does IMDB hate apostrophes?

reply

Because a character has to die

reply

When I was a kid, I had a TLW magazine which narrates the story.

According to the magazine, T-Rex smashes through the family's window. I don't know why they said this.

reply

Eddie died because he also died inthe novel, except in a much worse way (Velociraptors).

reply

The kid went back to sleep and the parents had sex.

reply

I think there's a deleted scene where the bull T Rex smashes his head through the boy's window, scaring them before he stomps off. He was spooked by the camera flash

reply

They needed the T-Rex not to be tranquilized at that point, also there were 2 of them, so not really a good chance not to be killed.
