''The discovery of the tomb beneath the monastery floor is a twist taken directly from 'Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade' (1989)'' - Simon Foster, SBS Movie Review
Sam Neill was cast in the lead adult male role playing archaeologist Dr. Chris Chase in this dragon-featuring picture after having played a paleontologist Dr. Alan Grant in Steven Spielberg's 'Jurassic Park' (1993) (and returning in 'Jurassic Park III' (2001)) which featured dinosaurs. Dragons are often considered to be related to dinosaurs because of their reptilian natures. Neill's characters in all were doctors of science.
