Bad Movie Review: Timerider: The Adventure of Lyle Swann

Always remember, before he realised who she was, Marty McFly was going bonk his mother.

Timerider is that one sci-fi film from 1982 that was pretty much forgettable during an epic summer of amazing science fiction films.

I’d prepare for a visit from Time Warner if I were you (the time traveling, copyright happy media mogul, not the corporation).

Just how much fuel did that bike hold? Looks like it got about 100 miles to the gallon!

Often overlooked as a time travel movie, but it is a really good one. 'Twelve Monkeys' is pretty realistic. The time travelling hero gets sent to the loony bin. (also sticks to the rule that a Bruce Willis film with a number in the title will be good) Personally this reminds me of the Star Trek DS9 episode 'Trials and Tribbleations' where they go back to the original series and Bashir meets a woman who could be his great grandmother, and no one knows who his great grandfather is so he thinks it's a predestination paradox like this. When prevented from meeting with her by O'Biran he responds. "I can't wait to see the look on your face when we get back to the station and you find out I never existed".

Probably the only time travel film I can think of that got everything right was 'Predestination'. And even that diverged from the Robert Heinlein original 1958 story "All you Zombies". Here he took that 'I am my own grandfather' thing and pushed the envelope. The character was his own mother and father...

Time Rider was one of the kings of the Video Store. It doesn't matter if you ever saw it, if you went into a Video Store in the mid 1980's you were aware of it. I suspect it got a lot of rentals because of the cover, and from a production perspective it's a step above the average "great cover bad movie" video store marvel. Even though it's not a studio film, it had a $1M budget, a reasonable cast, and a director who would write and direct Hollywood studio feature films. But despite it's omnipresence, it's not a cult classic. And there's a simple reason. It's not very interesting. Despite having much more money, it still turns into a hero running around the desert movie like all the cheapies, and the hero bumbles his way from one place to another. If they had decided to make the film completely absurd this could have worked, but they're playing it relatively straight so it does not. Most of all, nobody can sit around and say "the cool/funny part of Timerider is...". It's a film to forget.
