MOVIE REVIEW : ‘CAVEGIRL’: A TIME-WARPED LOOK AT PREHISTORIC AGE
- Share via
“Cavegirl” (citywide) is witless nonsense.
While on a field trip, a high school nerd (big, bulky Daniel Roebuck) is thrust by a time warp into a prehistoric age where he meets a lissome blonde (Cindy Ann Thompson, clad in an animal skin bikini a la Raquel Welch in “One Million Years B.C.”).
Their adventures, too unfunny to bother describing, were greeted, with the exception of a mild snicker or two, by a Westwood matinee audience Friday with the silence usually accorded an Ingmar Bergman film. Since David Oliver is listed as the writer-director-producer-cinematographer of “Cavegirl” (rated R for language and nudity), he has no one to blame but himself.
