The cave man movieNational Lampoon ’s Homo Erectuswill hit theaters in September . The situation comedy based on the GEICO Caveman advertising will premiere in October . But cave man are nothing new to pop culture . A adult male ( or cleaning woman ) who resembles us but does not see or fit in with the puzzling modern world is a fantastic gadget for both comedy and risky venture .

Loana is undoubtably the only character you remember from the 1966 movieOne Million Years B.C.All it take was Raquel Welch in a leather bikini to make it a smash .
Although Thag himself does n’t come along in this 1982Far Sidepanel by Gary Larsen , his caption survive on . Scientists have used the word " thagomizer" sinceat least 1993to describe a dinosaur ’s poop spikes . It ’s now used in reference book and museum exhibits .
The recent great Phil Hartman play Cirroc , theUnfrozen Caveman Lawyeras a recurring reference onSaturday Night Live . He spoke quite eloquently , but always fell back on his caveman background to concern to the jury as a vulgar man .
