Il mondo di Yor

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 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.

An Italian produced sci-fi/prehistoric adventure; a strangely original blend of ideas. I like the locations (shot in Turkey I believe); you actually feel like you're in some prehistoric land. This film's got heart and soul; the actors are so sincere; they obviously thought they were doing something important. This unintentionally funny and yet boring film has scantily clad women; club wielding neanderthals, androids, laser battles; a spaceship and dinosaur/monster thingy's (not badly done considering the budget and no CGI). And Roa played by the beautiful Ayshe Gul (as mysterious as the film itself); what happened to her? The ending leaves room for a sequel! Ha ha. Did anyone seriously think there was going to be a sequel? The synthesizer music's great too, as is the theme song: Yor's world! He's the man!

Yor is great when there is nothing to watch and along comes YOR you can easily stop clicking channels you have been saved .You can watch Yor in any mood and it fits .There is only one catch you can not tell your friends you watched it by your self.You can watch it and drive someone else in the room crazy.I just wish it was a series there is so much more he could do . Stunts like Yor falling off the cliff is amazing I can not tell how they pulled it off.Some how I just knew when he killed the Great flying moth he was going to use it to swoop in on the Hairy Monster men .I don't know how he easily overcame the leader when he was wearing Yors strenght necklace. In the sequel Yor could face the underwater men. The adventures could go on and on Yor the ever living cave dweller.I even think Yor could reach out into the space age and fit in. LONG LIVE YOR

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.
