Victor Mature, Carole Landis and Lon Chaney, Jr. battle the elmenets and engage in conflicts with each other in One Million B.C.
This Oscar-mominated adventure film, produced and directed by the legendary Hal Roach, has become a cult classic of sorts over the years.
In 1966, there was a remake, One Million Years B.C., starring the young and sexy Raquel Welch, clad in a tight bikini.
