I originally saw this movie on TV Years ago and loved it
As a Time Travel addict (I love anything to do with time travel and alternative history) this movie was a must
I have seen it several times afterwards and found the story to be interesting and entertaining
But there was one part of the movie that troubled me the most
All the action was taking place both in the present, past and future
A man Coke goes back in time to kill his partner whom he invented the time cube with
But not just satisfied with just going back into his partners past and killing him when he was born he decides to go back even farther to kill his partners father in the 1800
Interesting theory
Grandfather Paradox
If I kill the father the other person will not be born however if that person is killed how could he go back in time to kill his grandfather.
Baffling thought Now the show starts when mommy is in a hurry to go with her son to buy something Daddy is busy so he just bids them farewell and goes back inside Suddenly he hears a horrible sound as a criminal been chased by the police rams into the car in which his wife and son are in killing them both in a horrendous fire Now they don't say how long the next part takes place but it's enough for dad to write a thesis about time travel A strange girl appears saying tgat she believes in his thesis on time travel and wants to do research into something They set out and look for a particular town called Crossfire What also happened in the intrim dad and his friend go to a western auction and buy several items With flash backs we see the connections between the items and the past In the one truck there was a photo of three people on display in coffins and just behind them is a man watching and holding a gun in his holster that was not one around at that particular time A far more present time gun This leads our hero to think that he has been gyped but farther analyst proves that the photo is genuine from that time period He then discovers that this woman is from the future and is trying to stop Coke from killing her great grandfather They hunt him down in the past and then return home It is at this point that something goes very much out of kilter and left me very perturbed because there was something inconsistent with the ending Other reviewers have also commented on it The future woman decides to reward him for his services by dropping him off a few minutes before the fatal accident A real case of Deja Vou He saves his wife and son and the movie ends Now this raises a whole lot of questions He started investigating time travel after his wife and son were killed He then writes a thesis on time travel which becomes a hit many years later in the future The woman goes back in time to meet him and try track down Cole They eliminate him but there are some lose ends The Time machine gets squashed into the mud after Coke is killed Very lose end because there is a big possibility that that might be found and used for time travel The second one is his Deja Vou His wife and child are saved Does he still go and do his thesis on time travel and coke then travels into the past to kill the girls grandfather Something does not ring true here A commentator wrote that makes a farce of the whole movie But after very careful deliberation it does make sense Different time lines Let's refer to BACK TO THE FUTURE Marty goes back to 1955 and changes not only his parents past but his own as well Applying this to Time Stalkers it makes sense In the Original time line the movie takes place as shown While they are in the past they change (or Cole changes history) creating a new time line When they get back to the present her allowing him to save his family creates a farther new time line in a new dimension Looking at it from that point of view the three timelines can co exist in three different dimensions The TV series SLIDERS demonstrates that point where they travel to different dimensions Same time same place but different time line changes (Ignore the Kromags story line there) My apologies for not naming the characters in the Time Stalkers movie except for Cold but my memory is very faulty with names (old age LOL)
