Yor, the Hunter From The Future (Italian: Il mondo di Yor) is a 1983 science fiction fantasy film directed by Antonio Margheriti and starring Reb Brown, Corinne Cléry, Luciano Pigozzi, and John Steiner. The film was an Italian-French-Turkish co-production based on the Argentinian comic Yor the hunter.
The film was one of Margheriti's most financially successful films but was received poor reviews from Variety and The New York Times as well as three nominations at the 1983 Golden Raspberry Awards.
Yor (Reb Brown), a roving hunter, and barbarian jogs through a seemingly prehistoric desert landscape, past the stone towers of Cappadocia, Turkey. In a nearby village, Kala (Corinne Cléry), a seemingly primitive cavewoman, and her mentor and protector Pag (Luciano Pigozzi; credited as Alan Collins) are hunting. Suddenly, they are attacked by a stegoceratops. Yor appears and kills the dinosaur with his axe, drinking some of its blood immediately afterwards. Yor is befriended by the village and together they cut the choice meats to be feasted upon in celebration.
While Yor rests, a band of cavemen with bluish skin attack the village. Only Yor and Pag escape. Yor immediately swears to get Kala back. Yor and Pag track the blue cavemen to their lair where Yor shoots a giant bat with his bow and arrow. He uses the dead bat like a hang glider to storm the lair and starts flooding sections of the cave, the diversion helping his escape out the back with Kala. The flood kills everyone inside the cave, including the other kidnapped villagers (who had been locked in cages) as well as the blue cavemen.
