Encino Man (1992)
Director: Les Mayfield
Cast: Brendan Fraser, Pauly Shore, Sean Astin
In this quirky and heartwarming comedy, two high school misfits, Dave (Sean Astin) and Stoney (Pauly Shore), make a surprising discovery while digging a pool in Dave’s backyard—an ancient, frozen caveman (Brendan Fraser). When they thaw him out, they find themselves trying to integrate this prehistoric man, whom they name “Link,” into their modern lives in the suburbs of Encino, California. As Link struggles to understand modern society, he becomes an unlikely sensation at school, helping Dave gain popularity and even navigating the ups and downs of high school romance.
Filled with goofy humor, a touch of teen angst, and an unexpected friendship, Encino Man explores themes of acceptance, self-discovery, and the power of being true to yourself—no matter how out of place you might feel. With a mix of physical comedy and 90s nostalgia, the film is a cult classic that has stood the test of time for its offbeat charm and memorable performances, especially from Pauly Shore’s trademark eccentric persona.
