What would happen if prehistoric man discovered iron in the stone age? This is the question asked by Ironmaster (Italian: La guerra del ferro: Ironmaster), a 1983 film directed by Umberto Lenzi.The answer is a lot of bloodshed as the treacherous caveman Vood uses his newfound technology to fight his way to the top and begin a reign of terror against his neighboring primitive tribes.Michael Klossner, author of Prehistoric Humans in Film and Television. said the film was noteworthy for portraying "intelligent, articulate prehistoric people making discoveries, facing moral issues and showing capacity for great evil and finally for good."

Covers Always Lie: The various posters and home video covers feature not only the pterosaurs in the page image but also fanged neanderthals, a sabre-toothed cat and a fully bare-breasted Isa. None of these creatures appear in the film itself and Isa keeps her breasts covered.
