StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Ortiz Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Catherina If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Red-Barracuda B-movie producers Crown International Pictures seemed to churn out a lot of comedies in the 80's. The majority of them, I have discovered to my cost, are decidedly under par. Like most, Cave Girl has a title and cover that suggests it might be decent fun at the very least but in practice this is yet another laugh-free zone from good old Crown. It tells the story of a nerdy anthropology student called Rex who touches a coloured rock while out on a field trip and is somehow or other subsequently sent back in time to the prehistoric era. Almost immediately he meets cute cave girl and then more stuff happens.You would think that an 80's time-travelling teen-comedy would at the very least have a few ideas up its sleeve. Well, you'd be wrong in this case as despite the potential in the set-up, all this one more or less boils down to is our protagonist trying to teach the cave girl English in order to facilitate having sex with her. It should be said at this point that Rex is a notably irritating central character who, despite being offered to us as the sympathetic underdog, came across little more than a sex pest. Not only that but in spite of his character being a high school student, the actor that played him looked like he was pushing forty. Needless to say, the antics of this individual are somewhat alienating and don't generate anything approaching empathy.The film itself is a half-hearted sex comedy at best, with an early scene in a girl's locker room that did at least provide boobs which is never exactly ever going to be a bad production value. But really, the nudity is in short supply here overall and you really have to get into its humour and set-up to have any chance of appreciating it. Unfortunately, the comedy is really bad, resorting to a fart joke and an interminable sequence involving shaving cream. The prehistoric set-up is the only thing that really provides any interest but even that is pretty underwhelming on the whole, with boring cave people and little in the way of much else, aside from an encounter with a tribe of cannibals, which did enliven things a bit I have to say, although even that wasn't exactly very interesting. For a prehistoric comedy, you'd really be better off watching the cult movie Eegah (1962) or even the more recent California Man (1992); neither of those are exactly stellar stuff but both are marginally better than Cave Girl.

Leofwine_draca CAVEGIRL is an awful concoction mixing the usual '80s high school comedy hijinks with a Stone Age adventure. The main character is an overweight creepy guy who enjoys spying on women, and he ends up being transported back to prehistoric times by a secret military experiment. There he meets and falls in love with a beautiful blonde cave girl and the two have various adventures as they evade grizzly bears and cannibal tribes.This really is hopeless, barrel scraping stuff, and yet there's a little of the so-bad-it's-good vibe going on. The script is hilariously awful, and the whole thing has generally been made to show off breasts, although there's not as much nudity as you'd expect given the set-up. Daniel Roebuck (THE RIVER'S EDGE) is awful as the uncharismatic lead, although buxom starlet Cindy Ann Thompson (NOT OF THIS EARTH) is a little better as the vacuous cave girl and at least gets into the spirit of the thing.Everywhere the paucity of the budget is apparent, with rubbish fur bikinis and a general cheap-looking shooting style out in a quarry somewhere. Absolutely nothing that happens in it is any good or indeed memorable, and yet maybe that's part of the charm. ONE MILLION YEARS BC this ain't!

markymark_76 i stumbled across this film late one Saturday night on sky and decided to watch it. i found it to be so rubbish that i loved it. its a typical z rate movie with jokes that are so rubbish they are funny. the hero Rex is supposed to be 18 years old or so and I'm sure the actor playing him is about 40!!!! i would ignore all the rubbishing comments and watch it. it should be a cult film :))) Eba is beautiful and the cave men try to be funny, most people probably wont laugh but i found them class especially the chief and the woman with black scraggy hair. the acting is absolute 3rd rate the dialogue is so rubbish it makes for essential viewing. don't take my word for it though find out for yourself by watching it :)

tommywebb Although it had a horrible storyline, the one perk was the beautiful Cynthia Thompson. She stole my heart in this movie. I would watch it again just to see her. It is reminiscence of Ringo Starr's Caveman, all the campiness of an Ernest movie. Cyntia Thompson and Ringo should collaborate and make a really great prehistoric movie. If not for the nude scenes and and a few other things, children may have very well made this movie a hit. Kids love these type of movies. Too bad it ended up on the all time worst list. It is also too bad Cynthia Ann Thompson has not done a lot more in her career. I would love to see her do some fairy tale movies for the kids (and for me). She has such a beautiful face and smile.
