Creatures the World Forgot is a 1971 British adventure film directed by Don Chaffey, produced and written for Hammer Films by Michael Carreras. The film concentrates on the daily struggle to survive of a tribe of Stone Age people. Notably the story is told with minimal dialogue, relying instead on grunts, gestures and physical action.

Production

All of the exterior sequences were shot in Namibia and South Africa. The film is the fourth and last of Hammer's "Cave Girl" sequence of films, directed by Don Chaffey and assistant director Simon Petersen, preceded by One Million Years B.C. (1966) (also directed by Don Chaffey), Prehistoric Women (1967) and When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth (1970). Like the other films, it trades heavily on the audience appeal of scantily-clad tribeswomen.

Creatures the World Forgot is not related to two later, similarly titled films, The Land That Time Forgot (1975), and The People That Time Forgot (1977). Made by Amicus Productions and adapted from novels by Edgar Rice Burroughs, both films starred Doug McClure.
