Rating: 1 stars
Summary: cheesy but fun
Review: Cavegirl is definitely a B-movie. However after you get past that you can start to have a little fun with this film. You have the geek from high school who constantly gets harassed by his peers. He is then somehow sent back to the stone age only to find a prehistoric babe and a tribe who genuinely like him. The rest of the film basically follows the traditional formula and the man ends up staying in the stone age. If you can look by all of its shortcomings, (acting, production cost, bad dialogue) you just might enjoy it.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: I have to wait until 2010?
Review: Cavegirl may not be an award winning opus by any means. It's highest exposure was being shown on USA Up All Night about six years ago. Regardless, this is B-movie schlock at its best! Dan Roebuck (Jay Leno from The Late Shift movie) plays Rex, a nerdy high school student, who gets lost in a cave during a field trip and gets transported to the prehistoric era. There, he meets Eva, the only cave dweller with breast implants, clean bear skins and a just out of the salon perm. Rex finds that Eva's tribe respects him more than anyone in the future ever did, and he must decide whether or not he should stay with a prehistoric hottie or return to menacing bullies in high school. It takes a brain surgeon to figure out the answer to that dillema. Backed by a rocking soundtrack of synthasizers and lyrics like "We are mananas" - the music in Cavegirl is just as much of a guilty pleasure as the movie itself. Written, directed, produced and photographed (whew!) by the great David Oliver, who's other works include Mary and Bill Krane's Wedding and Abe Lincoln Middle Schhol Presents Putting on the Kids Talent Show, (okay - I'm joking) it honestly proves that no one man can helm an epic. That's why Cavegirl is 89 minutes long and has a brief sex scene and tons of bathroom humor! Leave your brain at the door and enjoy the spectacular tax write off. As for Amazon telling us that this is available in 2010, well, put me on the list to pre-order this great DVD! Even if I have to wait 10 years for schlock - at least it's good schlock!
