Console best movie i've ever seen.

WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

By-TorX-1 The plot of Prehistoric Women (AKA Slave Girls. AKA Scream of the Haunted Ferret) is mighty strange as it encompasses an English hero discovering a lost world of warring women, strangely masked men who constantly lurk in the trees, not one but two rebellious uprisings, a conclusion that I could not begin to adequately explain, and a timewarp lark that ups the weirdness scale in what is already a weird tale. Oh, and there are many, many dance numbers (complete with ensemble choral chanting) throughout the film. Indeed, there is dancing and chanting aplenty. Thus, as one may surmise from this overview, at one level the film is total rubbish, a factor exacerbated by its setting within the confines of a most unconvincing jungle, but it is still amusingly compelling, a factor 100% the result of Martine Bestwick, who is nothing short of glorious. Of the latter point, I did wonder why the stoic hero, David, was so resistant to her carnal demands! So, Prehistoric Women (AKA Slave Girls. AKA Scream of the Haunted Ferret) is a 1960s Hammer curio for sure, but it is worth catching, if only to witness the majestic Kari, before her tussle with a wheeled fibreglass member of the rhinocerotidae family, of course.

one-nine-eighty This Hammer film from '67 isn't typical of the Hammer films you'll know or expect. It's known by two titles; "Slave Girls" and "Prehistoric Women", I watched the later variant. While on a hunting party one of jungle guide David Marchand's (Michael Latimer) party shoots and wounds a leopard. Rather than leave it to suffer the decision is taken to hunt it down and kill it properly. Marchand eventually finds the wounded beast and kills it but in doing so he has encroached on sacred land and is captured by natives who worship a white rhino. He is taken to the tribal leaders who advise he must be killed as he has angered the white rhino God. Just before being executed time stops and a hole in time/space appears. Stepping through it Marchand is in a long forgotten time where he encounters a blonde woman (Saria, played by Edina Ronay) fleeing for her life. He discovers she is fleeing from the brunette women - Queen Kari (Martine Beswick, the sort of Bond girl who briefly appeared in "From Russia with Love" and "Thunderball") who rules the area and has enslaved blonde's and the local populous of men. In this place the brunette woman rule and anybody else is either a slave or just a masked shadow hiding in the trees. It's up to Marchand to assist with the revolution and help the enslaved people rise up against their oppressors. While helping he becomes close to the initial blonde slave, Saria, he encountered. Unfortunately after the revolution he'll have to return to his own time-line but as fate would have it, changing the future means he'll get another crack as Saria again.This film is pretty poor, it's predictable from the start and pretty flimsy. The plot has been done before many times and the script of this doesn't make it stand above any of the other films. The cast features mainly unknown stars so don't expect a polished quality performance. You'd think as a hot blooded male I'd revel in the sight of fur-bikini clad women running around but it looks too dated and against the backdrop it looks unconvincing. The special effects and scenery within the film are poor at best but that's what you get when you try to make an outdoor film completely indoors. As well as the rubbish jungle there's the papier-mâché rhino which keeps appearing. There is a lot of dancing and singing but I was put off when I noticed that any time there was it was plainly obvious that nobody on screen had their mouth open to suggest they were singing.While watching this film did pass away a few hours on a quiet Sunday it's certainly not a film I'll be in a rush to watch again or recommend to anyone. Sorry, I can only give this 3 out of 10.

utgard14 Hammer hokum about a hunter with high-waisted pants who finds himself in a jungle kingdom where pretty brunettes rule over pretty blondes (I kid you not). The brunettes' horny leader (Martine Beswick) takes a liking to him but he's more into blondes. Drama ensues. Cheesy Hammer 'lost world' film with a campy performance from sexy Martine Beswick. Love that seductive dance scene. It may seem tame by today's standards but I'm sure in the '60s a movie full of babes in fur bikinis was very titillating. Lots of unintentionally funny lines and situations. The very premise of brunettes enslaving blondes is laughable. It's no classic but it is goofy fun. Not the kind of movie you really can or should take seriously.

bkoganbing A lot of scantily clad women showing off their pulchritude and doing some exotic dance moves is the best reason I can think of to watch Prehistoric Women. If you find others let me know.Michael Latimer white safari guide in 19th century Africa gets caught by a nasty tribe who's been that way for several centuries ever since someone took their white rhinoceros god away. Latimer goes into some She like fire and emerges back in time when the social pecking order was brunette amazons rule with blond slaves and an even lower caste, men.But Queen Martine Beswick is getting a booty call and she thinks the newcomer Latimer is the best who can scratch that itch. But Latimer has decided to throw in with the blonds and overthrow the social order.That's it folks, about as dumb a plot as you'll ever find in a film. I'm sure even the great rhinoceros didn't approve of this sacrilege to his name.As for the ending, all I can say is that someone was reading Mark Twain or seeing the Bing Crosby classic, A Connecticut Yankee In King Arthur's Court. You do better to see that.
