A comedic fish-out-of-water adventure directed by Les Mayfield, this 1992 film follows two teenage misfits who discover a prehistoric human frozen in their backyard. As they work to acclimate their unexpected houseguest to contemporary society, the caveman's uninhibited perspective on life becomes a catalyst for the teens to embrace spontaneity and genuine enjoyment. Featuring Sean Astin, Brendan Fraser, and Pauly Shore, the film balances humor with an unexpectedly heartfelt exploration of friendship and personal growth across millennia.
