Best of RiffTrax Prisoners of the Lost Universe
Through a series of coincidences, Carrie, Dan and Dr. Hartmann all fall through a teleporter device Hartmann has invented. Transported to what appears to be a prehistoric world in a parallel universe and unable to find the Doctor, Dan and Carrie must figure out a way to get back home. Before they can do that, however, they must deal with tribes of savage cavemen, as well as a brutal warlord named Kleel who has taken a liking to Carrie and seems to be unusually well-supplied with Earth technology...

Quotes[]
- "Isn't this how Seinfeld ended?"
Pretty much: the sitcom Seinfeld ended its run by having the main characters sentenced to prison, like the heroes of the movie when Kevin asks this question.
