"When Women Had Tails" / "Quando le donne avevano la coda"
I'll start with the English title to the movie, it sounds like a weird storybook for adults. Then again,I guess they couldn't call it "Chasin' Tail" could they? (Or hey....why not?)
I was up late one night a few years ago and there it was on TV.
Yes, compared to mainstream movies and the Oscar winners, this is not.... just "not" in the same league... it's in a whole other dimension in a warped universe.
I'd compare it to a teen-agers first attempt at making his first film. Still, the movie ....it's just silly and fun to laugh at because it's so ridiculous absurd.
I beleive the women have tails, because this is prehistoric women. As shown in the movie, once they 'mate' , their tails fall off.
Simple plot, cavemen are lonely, bored,quite stupid (who's there to teach them anything?)... and getting themselves into one mishap after another. They can only hopefully learn from doing things.
One tries to fly, he crashes. One accidentally gets lit on fire and the smartest of them shouts, "Hey, c-mon! React!" The burning man finally realizes, oh! ....fire hurts.
Anyhow, the .. ahem... men, discover a lone female with, you guessed it, a tail. They all pursue her, wanting to "play". It never occours to them that, where there's one, there must be others, but they all want just her.
Naturally only the best looking caveman gets the girl. The rest eventually find a whole flock of them. They go to the women and party.
The guy and his girl, who's tail has gone bye-bye, are now a couple.
In a voice over, he bemoans the fact that it was he who has now invented "couples" (instead of what's going on in the background.)
I like to watch bad movies, as long as their so bad their funny.
This one is. It's just fun to do and as I've said of a few "so bad their amusing" kind of movies : Laugh at the absurdity, when you can't laugh for the right reason.
There's nothing to take seriously here, so why allow it to make you take it serious, because it's not a high quality production?
9 stars for that reason, dumb "caveman" fun ... not 9 stars because it's up there with the Oscar winning greats . (END)
