Tied for the best movie I have ever seen

Pretty Good

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Another cornball movie nowadays known only because it got riffed on "Mystery Science Theater 3000". "Time Walker" is not atrocious in the vein of "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians", but it's still pretty laughable. A muddled story of a sarcophagus containing a mummy that wasn't even human to begin with. If you ask me, it's best to leave the sarcophagi in the ground; removing them smacks of imperialism. As for MST3K's presentation, it was great to hear Joel, Servo and Crow trashing the movie (the references include the Monkees, "Funny Girl" and "Happy Days").Basically, you'll enjoy the version that gets shown in the Satellite of Love. Don't watch the movie on its own.For the record, Bill Mumy - whose last name rhymes with roomy, not mummy - has a band.

A combination of your classic Mummy movie mixed with your typical 80's slasher fare.Throw an alien in to the mix and you get Time walker.The execution wasn't anything new but I thought the genre melding plot was pretty original.Not a bad movie IMO.Above average 80's semi slasher,semi sci-fi movie.Ben Murphy was fine as the lead.The rest of the acting was so so.But if your a fan of 80's horror movies like me,especially slasher movies,then you should have no problem looking past that.I wonder what the planned sequel was.They must have had one in mind since they ended it with that ambiguous to be continued ending.

Ahh, Mr. Ben Murphy. Before Bruce Campbell stole his crown, Murphy was the King of Cheese. Unfortunately, Murphy was serious about his lousy acting career. He really, actually thought that he had some talent. Amazing. In this crappy serving of Murphy's Law(that the more serious a movie with Murphy in it is supposed to be, the worse and more cheesy that movie will be)Murphy plays an anthropologist(yeah, right!) who finds a sarcophagus in King Tut's tomb. In it is a peculiar mummy who was a visitor to Tut's kingdom three thousand years ago. Apparently this mysterious visitor made people sick(literally), because he had some kind of weird fungus growing on him..Or something. One of Murphy's idiot students touches the fungus, which got accidentally irradiated by another of his idiot students. It ate the moron student's hand faster than the flesh eating virus. Meanwhile, the mummy disappeared from his coffin(he felt the need to party. Well, it had been three thousand years, after all!) and started lurching around off camera looking for some ridiculous looking crystals that the idiot student who had irradiated the sarcophagus stole from it(larcenous as well as stupid.Did Murphy hand pick these guys?). The crystals glowed whenever the mummy got near them, becoming tiny disco balls. Welcome to the seventies, everyone! All that was missing was seeing the mummy do the Hustle.Murphy discovers that the mummy is actually the body of an alien visitor. It is trying to retrieve the stupid looking crystals so that it can phone home. Apparently the alien was in a state of suspended animation or something, which is why the zap of radiation brought it back to life. Never mind that that deserves a big fat HUH? since this movie is so groovy and with it that it doesn't really have to make sense. In the end, the mummy retrieves its tacky jewelry and is about to beam itself up(to what, we'll never know, since I doubt the mother ship actually hung around waiting for it to return for three thousand years)when a security guard tries to shoot it. Murphy plays the hero and hurls himself onto the bullet(thank you, movie!) and then is beamed up with the alien. Good riddance, Murphy, and I hope you enjoy the anal probe.

I saw this film when it came out in the theater 23 years ago and I'm still mad about the $4.50 I paid and the precious 83 minutes of my life that I will never get back. If I remember correctly, after watching it the MST3K group said that it was worse than any other movie they had ever seen except for "The Castle of Fu Manchu" and that is was AS BAD AS that movie. If it were possible I would devote my life to creating a time machine just so I could go back in time and do whatever it took, including assassination, to ensure that this movie never got made. I'm amazed that it did not hit the 100 worst movies list, I can only assume that it's not there because not enough people have seen it and endured its awfulness. There are some bad movies that are entertaining in their badness, there are some bad movies that I have enjoyed watching just to laugh at them. This is not one of them, this is just plain bad from beginning to end.
