PRISONERS OF THE LOST UNIVERSE(1983)
In the set: 100 Greatest Cult Classics


A scientist, a TV show sensationalist reporter
and a handyman walk into a bar - um, no, into
the scientists experiment and wind up in another
dimention!! They're seperated at first, with
reporter and handyman first finding each other,
then them finding the scientist. The world is
Earth-like except in prehistoric times, with
the exception of little beings with flashing red
eyes! They all wind up trying to find a way
back home, all the while making friends and
enemies!!

Starrig in this one is Richard Hatch(From
Battlestar Galactica fame!)! It's pretty
cheesy, but still some fun to be had! C+

From a reviewer at IMDb.com:

This stereotypical, low-grade fantasy lacks
both the budget and the directorial imagination
to be really exciting. The only epic thing
about it is the music score. The film is
too cheesy for most adults, but it also
has some unpleasant scenes that are unsuitable
for kids - making you wonder what audience
exactly they had in mind. What kept me
watching it is Kay Lenz: she's both endearing
and feisty, and she looks particularly sexy
when she's angry. Her face has a great
"bone structure" - she looks a bit like
Kim Basinger (trivia note: they were born
the same year, 1953), only more beautiful.
And she can even keep a straight face
through lines like "But....he's green!"
(when the male lead suggests that they
should follow a man). Take Lenz out of
the movie and you don't have a movie - just
a midget, a giant, an evil John Saxon,
and other stereotypes. (*1/2) - gridoon
