The Time Guardian

Considering the fact that Carrie Fisher did this six years after Star Wars, I was expecting a lot more from her in this horrible movie. Her dialogue was flat and should be ranked right up there with the Star Wars Christmas special.

A delightfully horrible movie that was fun to watch. And I say again it was one of the best horrible movies I have ever watched. Especially with Carrie Fisher in it... ROFLMFAO 😂😂🤣🤣👍 It's just too bad they didn't continue this franchise. I would have bought them all. One thing that surprises me, is that this movie never became a cult favorite. Maybe it will be one day. Here's hoping that they also continue the series in the same horrible manner!

I'd give it a 4 out of 10, not only because its sci-fi, and made in Australia. But is has a topless scene of Nikki Coghill. Good movies came out in the 80's like Mad Max with Mel Gibson, Turkey Shoot with Lynda Stoner. Time Guardian and these classics came from an era when VCR's were the fashion of the household and watching those science fiction movies, went well with popcorn and beer. This movie was made a number of years after Tom Burlinson's big motion picture role in the movie Phar Lap. I suppose back then production companies in Australia were trying to capitalize on the premise of making loads of money with this new found genre of films.

The Time Guardian is woeful and Tom Burlinson can get stuffed. Big names Carrie Fisher and Dean Stockwell in secondary and unmemorable performances, Star Trek outfits, poor acting, an awful script and horrible action sequences. Nikki Coghill's alright.

If this film didn't end Dean Stockwell's and Carrie Fisher's careers, nothing will. The narrative sequence often contradicts itself, and the plot line gets lost in the stylistic excesses of the direction. Production qualities are laughably amateurish (especially the JenDiki sequences), and some of the most violent scenes serve no structural purpose (do not advance the plot). A notably embarrassing aspect is the star billing given to Dean Stockwell, who obviously phoned in his performance one afternoon. Before seeing this film, I had thought that all major actors had agents who steer them away from career-killing disasters. Because this film is laughably bad, it might be recommended as a satirical send-up of the sci-fi genre, unintentional spoof though it may be.

Anyone who watches Time Guardian expecting it to be like Star Wars because of Carrie Fisher's presence wiil be disappointed. These are some of the words I've seen in Heessian499's review and I have to say this movie won't be forgotten after's over. Time Runner was really great, too. It's very interesting, because Carrie Fisher's the main female role in this movie and Mark Hamill ( Star Wars ) in Time Runner. I hope that you remember him. He is Carrie Fisher's brother in Star Wars. Sincerelly, yours Dushan Petrovic from Belgrade, Serbia

A city that travels through time is attempting to escape cyborgs who follow them and want to kill them all. The cyborgs live in the ground like Transformers, but they only come out at night because they are light sensitive, even though they are encased in steel. Carrie Fisher headlines the film but is more of a co-star coming off a successful Star Wars trilogy gig and working her way down. Half the conflict involves the local sheriff and idiot deputy. PLOT SPOILER: Their town gets left burning as a small scale "First Blood" another film influence. The opening scroll giving us the plot was similar to that other Carrie Fisher film. The film has camp cult value and is available on a four-pack with similar films. Guide: Nudity (Nikki Coghill)
