This early jurassic theropod did not have frill as dipicted in Jurassic park and there is no evidence it spat poison.

Dilophosaurus was featured in the 1993 movie Jurassic Park and in the original novel by Michael Crichton (on which the film was based). In the film version, it had a retractable frill around its neck (much like a frilled lizard), and was able to spit poison, aiming for the eyes to blind and paralyse its prey. There is no evidence to support this representation, which was invented by the author and director to heighten suspense.

Got this fromWikeopedia...and no...the real dinosaur did not spit venom...hope this helps.

Dilophosaurus was featured in the 1993 movie Jurassic Park and in the original novel by Michael Crichton (on which the film was based). In the film version, it had a retractable frill around its neck (much like a frilled lizard), and was able to spit poison, aiming for the eyes to blind and paralyse its prey. There is no evidence to support this representation, which was invented by the author and director to heighten suspense. In the film the director Steven Spielberg reduced its size, from moderately large to about 3 feet tall and 5 feet long - this was so as not to overshadow the main star of the movie, Tyrannosaurus . In the novel, the creature was 10 feet tall with no frill and had poisonous saliva that was used in predation by biting or spitting at its prey. In the novel, this trait was discovered by the researchers at Jurassic Park, who planned to remove the glands containing the poison. This plan was not carried out - an autopsy would have been needed to see how to remove the glands, but it would have required killing a Dilophosaurus, which John Hammond, owner of the park, opposed.

Juraasic Park merchandise, including toys and video games (such as Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis and the arcade games The Lost World: Jurassic Park and Jurassic Park III), often include Dilophosaurus. Another video game, ParaWorld, features a Dilophosaurus modelled after the ones in Jurassic Park.

Dilophosaurus was also featured in the documentary When Dinosaurs Roamed America, killing an Anchisaurus and scaring off a pack of Megapnosaurus.

No matter what anyone may tell you or what you might read on the subject, the fact is we know nothing about the dinosaurs. It is all speculation. The Jurassic Park movies were great. But they are fiction, not fact. We don't really know what the dino looked like or sounded like or how fast they were or what they ate or anything.

Really, nobody knows, until we can go back in time physically and check it out ourselves. Michael Crichton had a very good idea though. I believe it did.

I know for a fact that they sprayed while they were alive. I learned this years ago in my Science class.
