      I think I remember watching this one with my dad (or at least being around when my dad watched it) on TV when I was really young.

      Thank you for this.

      Haha yes, I watched that a year or two ago and found it pretty enjoyable. Certainly a nice accomplishment to make a modern, feature-length film almost entirely without dialogue(!)

      But also very cool IMO to make a film featuring almost exclusively our closest relatives, i.e. H. neanderthalensis! Any thoughts on it, yourself?


      Btw, not sure if you’re familiar with graphic novelist Jeff Smith of Bone fame, but one of his recent projects was to create a graphic novel exploring the intermix of various Homo species, not unlike Firestarter. I’d previously posted some samples to the evil empire, but I could probably port them over to the FV if anyone’s interested…
