It’s January, the first month of a new solar year, and Obsolete is getting Prehistoric!
Speaking of fire, we kick things off with the unique & absorbing prehistoric saga QUEST FOR FIRE (1981). Long before Frankie Went to Hollywood, there were two tribes warring for survival in the form of flame & food. Join the eternally cro-magnon Ron Perlman, Everett ‘Twin Peaks’ McGill & a young Rae Dawn Chong as they scrabble across an unforgiving landscape to seek fire – and a future for their tribe.
Then it’s a trip to the lighter side of prehistory with the unjustly forgotten CAVEMAN (1981), starring the Yellow Submariner himself, Ringo Starr! Our hero is Atouk, a cave schlub whose lust for Lana (Barbara Bach) gets him banished by bully Tonda (John Matuszak). Together with buddy Lar (Dennis Quaid) & female admirer Tala (Shelly Long), they encounter awesomely clay-mated dinosaurs & discover drugs, fire, and walking erectus.
