Summary
Remember Encino Man? The 1992 comedy movie about a caveman who gets thawed out and must adjust to life in the 20th century? Well, our advice would be to cling to that relatively positive memory like your life depended on it, because the straight-to-TV sequel Encino Woman (1996) is quite possibly the worst film we've ever seen.
When unsuccessful ad executive David Hosenfelt is attacked in his home by a roaming cavewoman, he finds his luck turns as 'Lucy' becomes the face of a lucrative fashion campaign for a fragrance called Primal. Sounds like a reasonable premise for a movie, right? Listener, you are unfortunately mistaken. Grit your teeth as we recap a movie that was, remarkably, never re-broadcast or released on any home media. Although that fact gets less remarkable the longer you watch.
