CALIFORNIA MAN stars Brendan Fraser as a teenage Neanderthal discovered and thawed out by two high school misfits, Dave (Sean Astin) and Stoney (Pauly Shore). Once the caveman, who they call Link, is up and about, things get hilariously out of control. Dave and Stoney figure he's their ticket to being cool. However, that idea backfires when Link turns everyday life upside down, causing a scene everywhere they go.
