"Raquel Welch
in a two-piece fur bikini. That and the title is pretty
much all anyone needs to know. If that indeed isn't
enough, there are the dinosaurs of technician-artist Ray
Harryhausen (along with some superimposed iguanas), and a
prologue that tells you all you want to know about this
"brutal world." Want more? There are volcanoes,
barehanded wrestling with warthogs, and rival, subhuman,
cannibalistic tribes--Lord, the list goes on and on! The
portrait of humankind isn't the most flattering: we're
petty, greedy, we grunt a lot, and we don't play well
with others. Welch portrays a cavewoman from the tribe of
the Blondes trying to make a life for herself with an
outcast from the tribe of the Brunettes, which doesn't
sit well with anybody."
