ONE MILLION YEARS B.C. - 50th Anniversary Restoration
Release date: 24 October 2016
Directed by: Don Chaffey
Starring: Raquel Welch, Martine Beswick, John Richardson
ONE MILLION YEARS B.C. is the spectacular prehistoric adventure that gave the world the most iconic bikini shot of all time, and made a star of fur-clad Raquel Welch. An epic tale of man’s battle for survival at the dawn of civilisation, rival tribes the Rock People and the Shell People battle not only the gigantic prehistoric monsters and each other, but the earth itself, still heaving, bubbling and boiling in its volcanic state. Billed as the 100th production from the legendary Hammer production house, the highlight of the film was without doubt the stop- motiondinosaur animation by legendary special effects animator Ray Harryhausen. The result was Hammer’s biggest commercial success, and the big screen's most famous dinosaur epic right up until the release of Jurassic Park 26 years later.
