To the defense of the recently deceased, calling the film
Teenage Caveman wasn't his idea, he was dead against it, it was the film company's do. Corman did not cast Robert Vaugh as a "teenager" and he wanted the film to be titled "
Prehistoric World".
Actually, the twist in the movie (not spoiling it!) isn't so bad, a bit like
Planet of the Apes, but 10 years earlier (oops, I did spoil it now!).
Two further important observations:
- If cavewomen
who knew no shame (at 00:04 and 01:11) really looked like the highly appealing Miss Darah Marshall,
I wanna go back, pleeeeeze! Anthropologically speaking, I could bolster their evolutionary development in my own selfless way.
- Using a real monitor to play a dinosaur (at 00:08 and 01:34) and then not even naming it in the movie credits is callous & despicable + should have rightfully been taken up by the
Monitor Lizard Motion Picture Extra's Scaly Union! Let's not talk about the baby alligator (introduced at 00:01 and mock-battling with the monitor at 01:34) doubling as a sail-backed dimetrodon! I don't even want to speculate about how they go that fake sail fixed on that poor creature's back.

What's worse, in the battle as the alligator/dimetrodon is spinning around its axis (something they don't do on land), there is obviously someone grabbing the silently suffering critter's tail twisting it around manually - ouch! And they have somehow attached the likewise poor monitor's head to the alligator snout to make it appear he's being swallowed. Yes,
animals were definitely harmed in the making of this movie, did perhaps someone from Kristi '
gravel pit of doom' Noem's family co-produce?
