In The Lost World: Jurassic ParkEdit

Dieter Stark was appointed by InGen to be Tembo's second-in-command. He only appeared in the film. Despite being his second-in-command, Tembo does not respect Stark as much he does Ajay Sidhu. Stark is cruel to the dinosaurs, mainly the Compsognathus, and doesn't seem to be nice to his own comrades. After getting separated from the others, he was attacked by a group of Compsognathus. After being chased across a river, Dieter was finally killed and eaten by the Compys. After being gone for a long time, Tembo goes looking for him, and after returning to camp without Stark, is asked if he found him. Tembo replies, "Just the parts they didn't like." Stark was played by Peter Stormare. His death mirrors John Hammond's death in the original novel. His last name isn't verbally mentioned in the film, but the credits have listed it. Dieter Stark's name is pronounced as "Dee-ter" instead of "Diet-er".

DeathEdit

Dieter was 'going to the ladies room' when he stumbled upon a Compsognathus in the bushes. He electrocutes it and heads on into the woods where he trips and falls down a slope. He recovers from the fall and calls for Carter, but is attacked by a swarm of Compsognathus. He gets away to a stream and starts flinging rocks at them, but they keep coming. They attack him and knock him down. He tries to defend himself but they kill him and start to eat him as the stream turns blood red.

NotesEdit

• He may be based on Howard King from The Lost World. King was more sympathetic whereas Stark was very cruel and cocky.
• When he get's attacked by Compys he can be heard cursing in Swedish.
  • When swearing in Swedish he says Helvetes jävlar, which is Swedish for "Hell's Devils".
• Him and Nick Van Owen don't get along as they were shown getting into a fight when the group rescued Nick, Sarah, and Malcolm who were hanging over the cliff when the trailer fell into the river and blew up.
• The action figure based on Dieter from The Lost World: Jurassic Park toyline is also the basis for the player model for the human hunter in the PSX/Saturn The Lost World game. During the final level on the Compsognathus campaign, the hunter can be seen shooting rockets at the player as it climbs the rocks. Afterwards, it then switches to the human hunter campaign where the player takes control of the hunter. Although the hunter goes unnamed throughout the game, the player is technically playing as Dieter Stark.
• Dieter's demise is similar to John Hammond's death in the first novel.
