As years and years of internet mash-ups have clearly demonstrated, Jurassic Park goes well with just about anything. And, as a clip from last year shows, throwing Pee-wee Herman into movies like Uncut Gems can have fantastic, disconcerting results. We’re hardly surprised, then, that Pee-wee Park, a video that replaces the dinosaurs of Jurassic Park with a giggling Paul Reubens, works as well as it does.
The clip, created by Pixel Riot, imagines a frightening science fiction world where scientists, too preoccupied with whether they could and not if they should bio-engineer Pee-wee Herman, have allowed the bow-tied man to run free through an island theme park. The scenes that follow are chilling. Pee-wee laughs manically from a metal cage, stalks computer hackers and hunters from his hiding places in the jungle, and, in what’s probably the best part of the whole thing, chases a jeep on his bicycle. No matter where the hapless park guests turn, Pee-wee is there, face twisted in a demented expression of joy.
Jurassic World: Dominion isn’t out until next year and the only other new Jurassic Park available to us right now is a middling kid’s show so Pee-wee Park is what we’ve got for now. Luckily, it’s probably a more entertaining spin on the franchise than anything that’s officially come from it in years.

Man, I have *got* to get to Alonso’s Gun Hut.
“…but perhaps I’ve said too much already…”
How has that not gotten a reboot?
No clue.
It stinks!
I would watch the heck out of this. Even crap like Pee-Wee Park III or Pee-World Fallen Kingdom.
Maybe a teenage gymnast could kick him in the face?
Agreed, crowdfund it lol. I
Right?? I enjoyed this way more than I should have enjoyed this.
This was part of the pre-show for a Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure screening at the Alamo Drafthouse a few years back. Impeccable work.
Oooookay, that’s where I saw it before. I could have sworn this wasnt new. That makes sense
Love this!!
I hated Jurassic World, but I did enjoy this sweded version a couple made, where the dinosaurs they were fleeing from were just their cats.
Sweded! I love it. Be Kind, Rewind was an OK movie, but so visually creative with the Michel Gondry created mini-films. I would watch a whole movie of just sweded movie.
Be Kind Rewind is actually a hell of a good movie but it starts with far too much Manic Jack Black schtick. Once it settles into its sweded movie montages it’s great, and the ending caught me by surprise by being actually very touching.
Cat Man Chris and Mrs Cat Man Chris with Cole and Marmalade.
The laser pointer on paper map was a nice touch
Well that was 2 1/2 minutes I won’t get back. Ok, 5 minutes. Fine, 7 1/2 minutes. Dagnabbit!
My face hurts from laughing
If you get chance to go to the premiere just make sure you don’t sit next to him in the cinema.
Still with the jokes? It’s been over three decades.
Some things just stick to you.
I see what you did there.
I found his mum everyone.
I bet that’s how he blinds Nedry.
As long as you’re not sharing his popcorn, you’re probably fine.
This is basically It 3.
I need a full cut of this version immediately.
RELEASE THE SNYDER CUT!!
Didn’t this come out a few years ago? The video I mean.
It did. Not everyone has seen it though clearly.
Good way to ruin a good movie.
Actually, it’s a pretty great way to ruin a middlin’ movie.
I don’t feel like Pee Wee’s Big Adventure was ruined by this.
Swing and a miss, dude.
It’s no Archersaurus. Full pilot episode is lurking somewhere.
I think I enjoyed that more than I should have.And I’m not ashamed.
This would be much scarier than the original.
Maybe they can hide…in the basement!
Looks more terrifying than the original.
Haha!
Thanks to my laughing my ass off at this video, tonight’s family pizza party movie is Pee Wee’s Big Adventure.
Made my day.
