Review of Time Walker

Time Walker (1982)
1/10
Being a Boring, Bad Film
15 June 2004
This movie is also a Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode. This makes sense.

There are some IMDb users that have said this is a *good* movie. I try, but I fail to comprehend this. See, I agree that there are *some* movies that, although bad, could actually be sort of interesting to watch if you take away Joel and the bots.

But this film isn't one of them. Perhaps it's that I watch Doctor Who and these people don't. Even a really *bad* Doctor Who episode is better than this film.

Summary: This is a really, *really* bad movie. The worst aspects of this movie are: the acting, the manner in which they attempt to create suspense and tension (but only achieve boredom and apathy), and the incidental music.

Close after in "badness" are the special effects and the plot. To my knowledge, there are *no* really good aspects to this film...

Oh wait, I got one: the "TV's Frank Home Shopping Network" at the end of the Mystie episode wouldn't have been possible if it had not been inspired by the artifact in the movie.
