Tammy and the T-Rex (1994)

It's the year after the release of Jurassic Park - the world has dino-fever and writer/director Stewart Raffill just happens to luck into an animatronic T-Rex and is hell bent on writing a movie around the prehistoric robot. What Raffill didn't know is that his stars, Denise Richards and Paul Walker would go on to star is pivotal films in American pop culture. The film is an incredible examination of mid-90s aesthetics, humor, and character naming, thanks greatly to the role of Weasel, played by the iconic Sean Whalen in an early role.
