Einer gegen das Imperium

Now here is a movie that gets a horrible rap, for reasons I can't fathom. Sure it's cheap, but at least it moves quickly. Yor is a strapping caveman type who runs from adventure to adventure, battling cool dinosaur puppets, desert zombie hordes, sex hungry ape men and more. Reb Brown certainly has the acting range of a baked potato, but Yor isn't exactly deep material.

Corinne Cleri is very stunning in her little cavegirl outfit, and when John Steiner comes in to explain it all, you can't help laughing.

Look for the funniest trapeze stunt you'll ever see a G.I. Joe perform!

Cavemen on a distant planet are fighting dinosaurs – and later on stormtroopers with black helmets straight from Star Wars. Yor, just one sword wielding barbarian, attacks a whole army of the Empire with far superior laser weapons, because he is a hero and got the right to do silly things. His girlfriend Kalaa is played by former Bond girl Corinne Clery (`Histoire d'O') who looks good in rags ;-) Oliver Onions of Bud Spencer/Terence Hill fame recorded a title theme that can politely be described as just what the movie deserved, including a backing choir of Neanderthal bozos.

Yor: `Drinking the blood of our enemies gives us strength!'

Reply: `Urgh… I prefer to stay weak then!'

One of those movies I find almost impossible to click a number for when I'm voting, because compared to any reasonable movie, this would be a hopeless zero, but it is so much fun to watch it'd deserve an eight. A must-see for Z movie fans!

"Yor: Hunter From the Future" is one of the most underrated films of the last nine thousand years. A key inspiration for such amazing works as "American Beauty" and "Hollywood Harry", this science fiction epic deserves to be rediscovered. The story follows a shy, and stupid blonde man who wanders through a prehistoric wasteland. As he encounters various villages and communities, he manages to destroy everything in his wake and ruin everyone's lives. The last thirty minutes are a revelation as our hero, his love interest, and some fat shirtless guy (who I still think is Orson Welles) are transported into space. There they fight a bunch of robots and shoot laser beams. Seriously, gang, if you want a film that will make you want to kill someone, then this is for you. Brilliant direction, acting, and writing all around. Best line: "DAMN TALKING BOX!!!!" Yor is played by an actor who never got his due in bad porn. The special effects blow Lord of the Rings out of the dork shelf at the rental store. You're going to love this movie so much you will want to slap yourself and hope that it isn't a dream.

Nine out of five stars.

Blurb: "Yor, more like Big Time!"

Yor is the hunter from the future. He's a simple tribesman/He-man warrior who leads a village of displaced tribes people to the promise land. Along the way Yor slays a dinosaur,fights evil Morlocks, glides on a Giant bat, fights some alien goons who get in his way and matches wits with Darth Vader's brother. Bad film that none of the actors take seriously (except Yor). Will Yor lead the people to the promise land and find out the meaning behind that funky gold medallion that he wears around his neck? Go out and Get Yor!! I wish I could see the original eight hour version shot for European television. When will this Drive-In gem ever be released on video? Who knows.

Recommended for lovers of bad movies.

This is certainly one of the most entertaining B-movies I have ever seen. Very funny and never boring. Perfect film to kill a pack of chips with your buddy.
