Watchlist:
High school misfits Stoney and Dave discover a long-frozen primeval man buried in their backyard. But the thawed-out Link—as the boys have named him—quickly becomes a wild card in the teens' already zany Southern California lives. After a shave and some new clothes, Link's presence at school makes the daily drudgery a lot more interesting.
Why you might like this:
Encino Man, released in 1992 and directed by Les Mayfield, is a delightfully quirky and humorous fish-out-of-water comedy that showcases the fantastic performance of Brendan Fraser as the unfrozen caveman Link. The blend of high school misfit antics and the culture clash as Link navigates modern life makes for a highly entertaining and memorable experience.
