Carnivore

Carnivore is an unintentionally hilarious and campy sci-fi horror novel written by Leigh Scott is a unusual cross between Jurassic Park and John Carpenter's The Thing. In it, a group of researchers and evil russians use chemicals to make a revived and recently hatched Tyrannosaurus Rex baby grow to adult size in a matter of weeks.

Because this is a Tyrannosaurus Rex and it does get mistreated, it gets loose and goes on a rampage at an isolated Antarctic research outpost. It then proceeds to eat everyone. Bloody Hilarity Ensues.

It's a cliche-ridden B-movie fest with characters we've come to expect in crappy horror movies and the very concept of a maneating dinosaur stalking humans in well beyond below zero temperatures of the Arctic is idiotic.

Because of this, it is immensely entertaining.

The following tropes can be used to describe the novel

 * Cliché Storm
 * Did Not Do the Research - Tyrannosaurs did not live in the Arctic millions of years ago.
 * Everything's Better with Dinosaurs
 * Guns Are Worthless
 * It Got Worse
 * Narm Charm
 * Oh Crap
 * Red Shirt - Apart from the two leads and a dog, everyone else is either meant to die or be eaten by the T-Rex.
 * So Bad It's Good
 * Somewhere a Palaeontologist Is Crying
 * Stock Dinosaurs
 * Too Dumb to Live
 * You Fail Biology Forever - While it may have been the result of chemicals mutating it, the T-Rex hatches from it's egg and grows to adult size in a matter of weeks.
