Hace un millón de años

En tiempos prehistóricos, los hombres se guian por sus instintos de supervivencia, compitiendo contra las grandes depredadores y las tribus rivales. En una de ellas, Tumak es expulsado de su clan, el Pueblo de las Piedras, por haberse peleado con su padre. Tras vagar durante días, es salvado por el pacífico Pueblo de las Conchas, y allá Tumak se enamora de Loana, una de sus miembros.

Las espectaculares luchas entre los dinosaurios animados de Ray Harryhausen y el escultural cuerpo de la Welch, apenas tapado por un sugerente bikini de piel, consiguieron de esta aventura prehistórica el mayor éxito de taquilla de la Hammer.

TRAILER

Tumak, a member of the Rock Tribe, is expelled from their cave after running afoul of their leader Akhoba, who also happens to be his father. After several days of wandering, he meets stumbles upon several female members of the Shell Tribe, a group that lives on the coast. Loana, the daughter of the chief, sees that he is in terrible shape from his ordeal and nurses him back to health. This causes her betrothed to become jealous and eventually the two of them get into a major fight and Tumak is expelled as a result. However, Loana decides to join him and follows him back to the caves of his people. While there Loana teaches the Rock people civility and this causes Tumak to become the new leader (Akhoba was severely injured while Tumak was away). This doesn't sit well with Tumak's brother Sakana who begins to plot to have Tumak overthrown.
