Also known as "Jurassic Park II," this is a 1997 science fiction thriller film, directed by Steven Spielberg. The screenplay was penned by David Koepp, based on the 1995 novel The Lost World by Michael Crichton.

The film picks up four years after the events of Jurassic Park. On a deserted island, dinosaurs have secretly survived and been allowed to roam free. In the time between the two events, John Hammond loses control of his company, InGen, to his nephew Peter Ludlow. Ludlow assembles a team to bring the animals back to the mainland to bring in revenue and restore the company. Hammond sees a chance to redeem himself for his past mistakes and sends an expedition led by Dr. Ian Malcolm to reach the island before InGen's team can get there. The two groups confront each other in the face of extreme danger and must team up for their own survival.

This film is much darker and arguably scarier than its predecessor. The film earned over US$618 million at the worldwide box office.
