History Film / TheLostWorldJurassicPark

** Not only is Peter Ludlow killed by the baby tyrannosaur at the end of the movie, his leg is broken by the adult to do so. It's not made clear in the final film, but a deleted scene (of which some still photos exist) shows that the baby tyrannosaur's leg was accidentally broken by Ludlow himself while he was stumbling around drunk after the successful hunt earlier in the film.

** A FromBadToWorse example occurs when Eddie is trying to tow the trailers back up the cliff and hears something over his SUV's engine. Cue both ''T. rexes'' that we thought were long gone storming back out of the gloom on either side of him to drive home the fact that, unlike Rexy from the first film, they're not just going to throw up their arms and go away and that there will be no escaping them this time.
** Of the BaitAndSwitch variety during the "Long Grass" scene. Immediately after Ajay warns the hunters against going into the field, we see a moonlit behind shot of three raptor heads silently poking just above the grass. The overhead shot that comes next shows at least ''ten'' trails homing in on the group. Three raptors would cause some serious casualties to the hunters' numbers but ''might'' be survivable by some; a pack of ten-plus is sheer overkill.

* GivingTheTheStrip: A velociraptor pounces on Sarah Harding from behind in the worker village, shortly after a scene in which virtually all of the hunters hired by [=InGen=] were attacked and killed by raptors. Her lucky pack saves her, though: the raptor only latches onto that and she manages to get away.

* OhCrap

* ForDoomTheBellTolls: Ominous bells can be heard during the music that plays when the ''T. rexes'' attack the trailer, and later when they attack the survivor's camp.

** Roland Tembo and Nick van Owen (who's a [[DesignatedHero son of a bitch]]). [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roland_the_Headless_Thompson_Gunner Someone is a Warren Zevon fan.]] The lyrics to ''Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner'' are referenced further in the deleted scene that introduces Roland. His friend Ajay finds him "in Mombassa, in a bar room drinking gin."

* DeathByAThousandCuts: Anyone who has the misfortune of encountering a hungry ''Compsognathus'' swarm will be subjected to this. Cathy Bowman and Dieter Stark find this out the hard way and of the two [[spoiler: Cathy [[ImprobableInfantSurvival narrowly escapes with her life]].]]

* EveryManHasHisPrice: Eddie and Nick didn't even believe that the dinosaurs were real, with Nick saying it was just going to be "maybe big iguanas" and initially didn't want to go to Isla Sorna. However, Hammond threw so much money at them that they were convinced into changing their minds. Subverted with Roland, who's so intrigued at being able to hunt down a ''Tyrannosaurus rex'', one of the greatest hunters in history, that he considers this his fee for helping lead the Ingen expedition in lieu of whatever Ludlow's paying.

* RagnarokProofing: When both the protagonists and the antagonists have their radios destroyed, they are forced to trek to the communications centre in the island interior. The fact they're still working after several years of abandonment is justified; the island's electrical systems were built to be self-sufficient, not requiring regular maintenance, and runs on geothermal power.

* TheUsurper: John Hammond reveals that his nephew Peter Ludlow, the film's main villain, is one of these. After years of scheming, the film's opening scene gave Ludlow the leverage he needed to seize control of [=InGen=] from Hammond.

* VillainHasAPoint: While Ludlow ''is'' a jerkass to Malcolm during his introductory scene, he also isn't technically wrong when he points out that Malcolm ''did'' violate the NDA he signed before the Isla Nublar Incident. [=InGen=] ''was'' legally within its rights to retalaite for the breach of contract (even if Ludlow took the retaliation into Malicious Slander territory).

* VillainyFreeVillain: The [=InGen=] corporation are intended to be a ruthless MegaCorp who arrive to strip-mine Isla Sorna of its dinosaurs for profit. While it's perfectly legal for them to recapture a group of animals they themselves bred and to attempt to recoup their losses, the creators expect the viewer to gloss over this by simply making them out to be massive {{Jerkass}}es, even going so far as to deceptively edit the film to make some characters even more unpleasant.

* AdaptationExplanationExtrication: Sarah Harding has the same surname as Gerry Harding, a member of the Park's staff in the first movie. In the novel, she's strongly implied to his daughter, but in the movie it's not explained or remarked upon, possibly because Gerry Harding's role in the movie is so small (it's larger in the novel) that reminding the audience of his existence would just be confusing.
