Here's my checklist for what every caveman movie should have.

- All the attractive females should be wearing animal skin bikinis.

- At least two of the females should get in a catfight at some point.

- Everyone speaks either perfect English or grunting gibberish.

- The heck with Darwin, your cave people should have at least three encounters, and maybe one battle, with stop motion dinosaurs.

- No caveman movie is complete without a volcanic eruption.

Junkyard

- Anomalous lack of proper words for basic things.

Tripe

- ability to use web based car insurance services

Bob

- Run into another clan of people and the one tribe's "ugly" female falls in love with the other tribes alpha male.

GregMcduck

-Sure, stop-motion dinosaurs, but one of them at least needs to be an actual real life lizard with a horn glued on it's head, romping around a miniature set.

Tyrant

Phooey on the stop motion dinosaurs. I like super-imposed shots of giant horney toads and iguanas better.

Fuzzy Necromancer

First point, define "attractive".

-There must be long panning shots of dull-looking generic scrubland.
Love doesn't hurt. It kills.

"Where there's smoke, there's a smoke-making machine."

Chaos

Don't forget the obligatory "hitting the female on the head with a giant novelty club and dragging her off by the hair" routine.

Freezing pee (original 1,000,000 BC) or random sex scene (Quest for Fire) are optional but not required.

RobtheBarbarian

Must have a old guy who rants about The Gods.

Pak-Man

Fire and the wheel both have to be discovered in the course of the movie.

It must at some point be revealed that it's not the past, but a post-apocalyptic future.

I think we should write a script for a caveman movie using everything that gets listed here.

Attractive meaning Raquel Welch or Victoria Vetri.

I agree.
