100 Million BC (aka Jurassic Commando) (2008)

Michael Gross (Tremors) builds himself a time machine from parts left over from Stargate and goes searching back in time for Christopher Atkins who hasn’t been seen since Blue Lagoon.

100 Million BC is The Asylum’s take on The Philadelphia Experiment (which they mention in the opening scenes) and 10,000 BC, only they can't afford a naval ship, just poorly animated dinosaurs. Gross lost a naval ship in WW2 and newly discovered cave paintings locate it way back in 70,000,000 BCE. Gross leads a team back in time on a rescue mission, and are followed back to the modern day by a Giganotosaurus. It’s not as much fun as it sounds, but at least Atkins’s has lost the perm he had in Blue Lagoon.
