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!

This is one of the greatest scifi movies of all time. Imagine a future where humanity has returned to its cave man ways. But then add in a tyrnical empire which secretly still exists with high technology planning on redominating the entire planet. only one man can save the world. And he is Yor, a caveman with mysterious roots, played by B movie king, Reb Brown, Captain America himself! You just can't go wrong. This movie was played multiple times on cable during the 1980's and you can still catch it every now and then. its a great movie to watch when you are up late on a hot summer night and you want to jsut watch and action movie. Plus, we have glorious 80's heavy metal music which jsut can't be duplicated. 10 out of 10. Rent this movie and check it out. You'll love it.
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!
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.

- TriviaThis was broadcast as a mini-series in Italy, using a lot of footage that never made it to the theatrical release.
- GoofsYor rips his stolen pendant from Ukan's neck, apparently breaking the string. As he and Kalaa flee, the pendant is nowhere to be seen. After they cross the pit of bones, Yor is suddenly wearing the pendant again, with the string inexplicably intact.
- Crazy creditsMany of the Turkish cast members' names are misspelled.
- Alternate versionsThe director's cut for theatrical release is 98 minutes, from the original four-part Italian television series, running 200 minutes (50 minute episodes), currently rarely shown in late-night shows. VHS and DVD copies usually are cut to 88 minutes or less.
