The Missing Link (1980)

Pils Films (France)
Directed by Picha
My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4
IMDb

A French film by Picha featuring crude animation, and even cruder comedy, with a story set in the cave man days. "Oh", our hero, is born in a primitive tribe, his intelligence obviously far beyond anyone else. He soon leaves in search of "someone like me". He takes along a friendly dinosaur and wisecracking pterodactyl. They have various misadventures, none too interesting, displaying a juvenile fascination with sex. Only two scenes rise above the muck: a flying scene with the pterodactyl set to the song "Flyin" by Rick Wakeman, and a silly scene with a dragon towards the end.
