B-movie king Roger Corman told SCI FI Wire that he's working on a sequel to his straight-to-video monster movie DinoCroc and is preparing a few more monster movies involving Greek and Mexican mythology. With regard to DinoCroc, Corman said in an interview: "The movie performed well overseas and got good ratings, so we're working on DinoCroc 2."

DinoCroc, about an illicit experiment that gets out of control and creates a ravenous giant dinosaur-crocodile hybrid, is a project Corman developed for the SCI FI Channel. It starred Costas Mandylor, Charles Napier, Jake Thomas and Joanna Pacula and is being released on a special-edition DVD on Dec. 13.

Corman added that he will soon be developing another project for the SCI FI Channel called Cyclops and expects the movie to give a new view of the Greek legend. He added that he is also delving into the legend of a Mexican monster for Cry of the Winged Serpent, featuring a creature called Quetzalcoatl, the principal god of the Aztecs.

At the moment, Corman is overseeing special effects for the SF/horror film tentatively titled Saurian, directed by F/X guru John Carl Buechler. "We're finished shooting it, but we're not sure about the name yet, and he's working on the special effects," Corman said about the film, which stars Michael Pare, Tracy Scoggins and Nick Mancuso.

Raph's girl note: I wonder if Saurian is the sequel to "Pteradactyl"???
