One Million Heels B.C.

About This Movie

So, One Million Heels B.C. is a 1993 comedy that leans heavily into its absurd premise. You’ve got this woman who stumbles upon a cavegirl in her backyard. The whole vibe is playful, like a cheeky take on the prehistoric genre. They end up having showers - which is a pretty funny juxtaposition, right? - before getting into some lingerie. It plays with themes of modernity versus primitivism in a light-hearted way, though it’s not deep or anything. The pacing is pretty laid-back, never really takes itself too seriously. The performances are over-the-top, which adds to the charm. It’s a kitschy romp, not really known for its technical prowess, but those practical effects and costumes are definitely part of its quirky appeal.
