What happens

The Lost World is a 1992 film, based on the 1912 novel The Lost World by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The movie is set in Africa rather than the book's setting of South America, and the character of Lord John Roxton has been replaced with a female character played by Tamara Gorski (in her film debut). It was followed by a sequel the same year, Return to the Lost World, with the same director and main cast. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
