Review of Caveman (1981) by Mark C — 15 Jun 2008
This is one of MY favorites. I saw this in 1981 at the theater with my maternal grandma (the only movie I remember going to with her). I love the set. Reminds me of some places from my childhood, especially the pine trees.
Some shots look like place in Tahoe, Shasta or Lassen. I like the costumes even though they are too well made for cavemen. I love the cast, especially Dennis Quaid (he is so young and built), Ringo Starr (too bad he did not make more movies), Shelley Long (great), Jack Giford and Cork Hubbert.
I love the cheesy but funny dinosaurs. This is total cornball comedy. Not another Quest For Fire, I liked it so much more because it was serious comedy. The original language added so much to this I thought and makes it great!! I enjoy this as much now as I did when I was 11 years old.
A classic.
