Who Remember's This Movie?

By -

"A chillin' new comedy in full Neandervision."

Brendan Fraser played a Neanderthal in this 1992 movie.

The film gained a mostly negative reaction from critics. It currently holds a 17% rating on the film review site Rotten Tomatoes. Despite the low rating, the film was a box-office success, with an intake of over $40 million. Its budget was only $7,500,000.

Pauly Shore's performance won him the Razzie Award for Worst New Star.

The film is called "Encino man".

Here's an early review of the movie from May 28 1992:
If you're among the audience that has gone to "Wayne's World" over and over and rented the "Bill & Ted" movies 100 times each — "Encino Man" is for you.

This is sort of "Wayne and Garth Meet Caveman Lawyer." ("Saturday Night Live" fans should get that.)

Sean Astin (who seems to be getting chunky in his post-adolescence) and Pauly Shore (yes, he has that same MTV persona) are a pair of high school seniors looked upon by the rest of the school as hopeless nerds. But one day, while digging a swimming pool in Astin's back yard, they come upon a frozen caveman (Brendan Fraser, who is quite ingratiating).

Seeing a possibility for popularity, they dig him up, thaw him out and then try to integrate him into modern teen society. Soon they have enrolled him in school as an exchange student. And he repays the favor by helping them become cool.

This is every bit as insipid as it sounds, but it's also surprisingly innocent and has a most unexpected sweetness. There are some chuckles here and there for adults, but on the whole this one is strictly for teens — and the teenagers sitting around me seemed to be truly enjoying themselves.

"Encino Man" is rated PG for mild comic violence and a couple of profanities and vulgarities.

      Yes he took his experience from this movie to land more esteemed roles, like in George of the Jungle and Monkeybone.

      Ended up giving $5.00 tug-jobs in the Target parking lot because Wal-Mart is just too redneck for him.

    Pauly Shore blew me once and I shot a load into that pretty hair of his. He was down on his luck and needed the money.

Bigfoot injured by a forest fire was taken away and hidden by the authorities, not even Robert Lindsay can top this story

This story was circulating the internet way back in 2004, or maybe as far back as 1999. Back when everybody was on 56k dial-up modems and a "Facebook" was just a regular book with directory listing of names and headshots. This story was so disturbing and so shocking that nobody believed it at the time. It was the Robert Lindsay " Bear Hunter: Two Bigfoots Shot and DNA Samples Taken " story of the time. And like Robert's Bear Hunter story , this witness didn't have a name. The only thing known about the witness is that this person was a government employee, anonymous of course. The author of the story was a science teacher named Thom Powell who believe it really happened and that the whole story was an elaborate cover-up. Powell said the anonymous government employee alerted the BFRO about a 7.5 feet long/tall burn victim with "multiple burns on hands, feet, legs and body; some 2nd and 3rd degree burns". Sadly, there was no DNA samples taken from

Rumors abound on whether or not Finding Bigfoot will continue, but hopeful news is on the horizon. Snake Oil Productions, the production company responsible for Finding Bigfoot, is seeking a permit for filming in the Monterey, Virginia area. Monterey lies between the Monongahela and George Washington National Forests. Definitely a good place to look for bigfoot. We can only speculate if this means Finding Bigfoot has been signed on for additional seasons, or if perhaps a new bigfoot show is in the works.

Samurai Chatter: Have you used it in the field?

Editor's Note: This is a guest post by Suzie M., a sasquatch enthusiast. Crypto-linguists believe that the species known Bigfoot/Sasquatch/Yeti/Yowie ect speak and understand a complex language, which by all accounts seems to stem from Asia. When one listens to it there is definitely a sense of it being Chinese or Japanese. It is a very odd mix of sounds, clicks and what could be actual words. This is the reason some experts are looking into the Asian dialect theory, some have said it could be a lost dialect, which was carried from Asia by the Bigfoot species that colonised America.
