Haven't seen this relic since I was little. I read the book and would like to see it again, but I'm certainly not going to pay $60 for a 26 minute DVD. Someone really needs to upload this, can't even find it on a torrent.

Thanks for posting. I have not seen this in over 30 years and it always stayed with me for some reason.

@BloatedSensations LOL! I think now would be a good time to remake this film. I know Hollywood isn't very good with remakes, but they do get it right sometimes, and I'd like to see a more realistic future AND Neanderthal boy.

I'm reading this book right now and loving it so far. Drove me to google 'Neanderthal boy' just to see how Timmie might have actually looked, and let me tell you, Neanderthals are nowhere near as ugly as the one in this clip. I'd still like to watch this film, though.

Huh! Who would have thought that the future would look so much like the 70's?

Producer Denise DiNovi at one time was going to make a feature, starring Demi Moore. This was reported back in the late 90's. This would be great today and a great starrer for Moore.

I need to find a copy of this. There's no way I'm spending $60 for 26 minutes though.
