Cave Babe (1992)

“She came from the Ice Age…to rule the High School.” You and Danny were just two suburban nobodies with one summer plan: dig a backyard pool. But when your shovels hit something cold and solid, they didn’t find water—they found history. Buried in ice was Deva, a prehistoric cave woman frozen for 10,000 years. Thawed out in a chaotic garage experiment, Deva wakes up in the suburbs of 1990s Deville. She doesn’t know the language, the fashion, or the rules—but she’s about to rewrite them all. Mistaken for a mysterious transfer student, Deva becomes an instant sensation at school. From the wrestling mat to the cafeteria taco bar, she leaves a trail of bewildered teachers, jealous cheerleaders, and one very angry class president. But popularity comes with a price. As you and Danny ride Deva’s prehistoric popularity wave, jealous rival Chad plots to expose her, and a team of bumbling scientists move in to drag her back to the lab. Now, the trio will have to survive prom night, outwit the adults, and prove that even after ten millennia on ice, you can still be the life of the party. Rated PG-13: For prehistoric partying, excessive mall food fights, cave-woman combat, and one scene of historically inaccurate fire-making. Totally rad music video: “Prehistoric Prom” by a fake band called Fossil Fuel. "Cave Babe, the riotously unhilarious new comedy about a misfit couple of Deville high school nerds who discover a cave man buried in the back yard, is the kind of movie that gives evolution a bad name." – The Deville Post "The bottom line for this genre is that the guys are goofy and likable, the pacing is quick and there are a lot of laughs. In a dumb-Deville-kids movie, that's all you really need." – Bob John Diggs "Cave Babe is a mindless would-be comedy aimed at the younger set. Low-budget quickie is insulting even within its own no-effort parameters." – Variable Magazine
