I remember it too. Actually, just found the title. I thought it was just "Link," which would explain why I couldn't find it.

so there is atleast 3 people who remember this film. all we need to do now is get hold of it. could be difficult, they will never release it because 3 people probably dont warrent enought deman for the product. lol

This movie was on a Spanish-language station on my cable system this past Saturday afternoon (translated title was "(something) Perdido." I only watched for a short while but found it oddly compelling. Being that there's no dialogue, it's the first time I've found a show on the Spanish station where I could completely understand what was happening. :)

I wish they put it on here in the u.k

I think I had it taped from BBC2 but that was yeears ago and I dont have the cassette anymore.

I really want to see this film again

I saw this movie on television (UK TV) sometime in the 90s.
Having a hangover at the time, I didn't pay much attention at first
but slowly it grew on me. By the end I was mesmerised. I didn't even
know what it was called. The only part I can recall really (apart from
the walking, walking) is the massive toads/ frogs/ whatevertheywere.

I discovered the name a few years back on imdb and check every now &
then to see if there's a dvd of it available anywhere in the world.
Apparently not. It's sad really how something of such great quality
can be forgotten/ missed.

i really doubt that they will ever release it. im not sure how or who to write to, to request a copy, there are some haunting scenes that are still present in my mind even though i have not seen this in about 10 years.

Not sure if I would watch on reapeat, but I would definitely watch.

It was probably in early 90s when I saw the movie, I was a young teen at the time. It was on TV (possibly The Movie Network). From time to time I have images of this movie in my head but I had no idea what the title was. I just found it the Recommendations section for another movie I was looking up.

Not sure if there is a chance I find a copy, but I know I want to watch it. If I ever find a way to watch this movie again, don't worry I will let you know.

Have you noticed that User Rating received only 125 votes? This movie is not a typical Hollywood action blockbuster and is therefore not of interest to many people, sadly.

i really want to see this again. probably will never find it.

I just finished watching it, "El Eslabón Perdido" con Peter Elliott. It seemed very familiar but I couldn't put my finger on it. I saw it once back in the late 80's & just forgot about it, then towards the end I started to remember. The thing about Spanish television is that they make an hour & 20 min movie last 3+ hours, every 5 mins they show 10 mins of comercials. Maybe the math is off but that's how long it feels. Yet I stayed watching it to the very end. Now I'm off to find the torrent.

It's a fantastic movie, deeply touching and also jarring - truly one of those rare films that are unforgettable ... It's supremely sad, but hilarious in parts too - covering the entire gamut of human emotions ... I love this movie!

I just happened to catch this movie flipping channels, and i saw it on one of the spanish speaking channels, and was hypnotized and am watching it now. I'm a syfy freak, mostly old syfi, but this is good, and I'm really enjoying this movie.

I agree... and have had the movie running continuously on several occasions. I just wish they would bring out a decent copy on DVD.

So glad to have finally stumbled upon tho movie again. I too saw it in the late 90's and have often thought about it since. I thought it was called Australopithecus Man but after very little googling I was able to find it here! Bummed to see that there's not a DVD available but I did find the whole film on Youtube. As someone else said, it's not the best quality but it's better than nothing!
