One Million Years B.C. is a British adventure fantasy film directed by Don Chaffey. The film was produced by Hammer Film Productions. The film stars Raquel Welch and John Richardson, set in a fictional age of cavemen and dinosaurs existing together.

Tumak is expelled after running afoul of their leader Akhoba, who also happens to be his father. After several days of wandering, he stumbles upon several female members of the Shell Tribe. Loana the daughter of the Chief, sees that he is in terrible shape from his ordeal and nurses him back to health. This causes her betrothed, Payto, to become jealous and eventually the two of them get into a major fight and Tumak is expelled as a result. However, Loana decides to join him and follows him back to the caves of his people. While there, Loana teaches the Rock people civility, and this causes Tumak to become the new leader.
