While on safari in Africa, big game hunter David Marchant (Michael Latimer) is captured by a hostile tribe and taken to a temple guarded by a statue of a white rhino. When a lightning bolt splits the temple wall, Marchant runs through and enters a prehistoric world where he meets the striking blondes Saria (Edina Ronay) , who is one of several fair-haired tribeswomen oppressed by a rival group of dark-haired vixens led by the evil Queen Kari (Martine Beswick). Kari's clan regard all men as inferior and David has become Kari's next target. When he resists her advances, a riot breaks out and leaves David desperate to escape the grasp of the Prehistoric Women.
