Timestalkers (1987)

Keep in mind that this is a TV movie, with a rather limited budget. It is not meant to be a thriller or a marvel of science fiction. Nothing in it is original, and as most other time travel films, it asks you not to think too much about the logic of time travel. It's basically a nice little family film that you can watch with your kids on a lazy afternoon and have some fun. There are no scenes in it that contain real violence or that come off as particularly threatening. Our heroes breeze through the obstacles the plot throws at them with considerable ease. Granted, the absence of real tension and the fact that the antagonist is not truly menacing is a problem, but I am willing to disregard that problem because I find the overall experience of watching this quite pleasant. The cast is pretty good and it's a pleasure to watch them on screen. The female lead steals the show, though. There's lots of nostalgia here for those who remember the 80s.

I watch westerns on a weekly basis, and one day i was browsing through the internet looking at Sci-Fi westerns when i saw Timestalkers. I did some research to find that it is a rare film. Afterwords i bought it on VHS off eBay. When i watched this film i found it had a good storyline. William Devane plays to role of a man with an obsession for the old west. He finds and old photo from a trunk bought at auction, in the photo he sees a man holding a man holding a 1980 magnum. He encounters a lady from the future and they travel back to the old west. William Devane plays a great role in the film,and it is very well shot. This film is a rarity in the Sci-Fi western section, apart from Back To The Future 3 i have only seen this film as being great.It is worth watching alone or with the family, it will leave a fond memory to last forever burning in our hearts.

This movie is on constantly on cable. I had the morning off, so I watched it. I have some questions. The evil german guy shot two cops in the professors house... later on the professor and Lauren Hutton don't even mention it. Wouldn't they be prime suspects in a double cop murder? If General Cliff Claven got shot to death by the evil german guy, why doesn't the professor and Lauren Hutton go back in time 5 minutes and warn him? This was another movie, that although it's full of holes and overall a terrible movie, I watched the whole thing. I couldn't... turn... away.

William Devane is the greatest cheese actor in the entire world. i got so excited after i found out he was going to be in THE HOLLOWMAN that i bought a ticket straight away. TOP CLASS CHEESE! JAMES CAMERON
