Larry Clark (Kids) gives us a futuristic tale that bears little resemblance to Roger Corman’s 1958 Teenage Caveman. The world has been ravaged by disease and the survivors live a crude existence in caves, shunning technology and being told that, “God is coming and he’s pissed”. A group of teens abandon their tribe and discover the ruins of a city with two survivors living a hedonistic lifestyle complete with everything the teens have ever read about (mostly in Penthouse). But these two aren’t what they seem. Clark loves filming naked young people having sex, and he does it again here, until deciding he wants to make an eighties style splatter film complete with a Toxic Avenger looking monster. That would be okay if the film made sense, but it doesn’t, including cave dwellers knowing how to operate computers and fire guns. Still, if you want trash, it doesn’t come much trashier than this.
This has nothing to do with the movie, but I thought you might enjoy this "historically accurate" picture of cavewomen
