In the Year 2889 (1969 TV Movie)
8/10
Judge it on its level

Movies like this cannot be found easily, so appreciate it.. Let's put it this way: When my friend and I go to the movies and see the coming attractions, we yell out how much we think it's worth paying to see that movie. "5 bucks", "a buck fifty", sometimes "full price"... Well, this movie (In the Year 2889), we would yell out "you should be paying us".

First off, the first minute I'm wondering, hey, this looks like the 60's to me, what the heck is the significance of the title "2889". I'm still wondering.

Okay, it doesn't pay to dwell on the details or the plot, or insignificant stuff like that. If you're into low-budget trash, this one is magnificent. Don't believe the critics on IMDb. This movie gets a solid 8, if just to see Paul Petersen function without Donna Reed. And the old guy (father) is a pisser. The story is so full of holes and bad acting that I thoroughly enjoyed this movie.

Bad movie fans, you've GOT to watch this one!
