Episode 121: Cavegirl (1985)

from Screens of the Stone Age · host Josh Lindal, Dr. Kimberly Plomp, and Dr. Ross Barnett

Today we’re reviewing Cavegirl (1985), a movie which Wikipedia misleadingly describes as a “sex comedy”. It tells the story of a teenage nerd (i.e., incel) who is accidentally thrown back in time due to some magic crystal/military helicopter shenanigans and meets a charming manic pixie cavegirl who nonetheless fails to instill in him any growth or character development whatsoever.
