Plot edit

Young Jesse is the Earth's last line of defense and travels through time trying to stop an alien threat.

Cast edit

Production edit

Timemaster was written and directed by James Glickenhaus and stars his own son, Jesse Cameron-Glickenhaus [fr].[1] James also wrote some songs for the movie's soundtrack. This was the last film released by Shapiro-Glickenhaus Entertainment, before they disbanded in 1995. It is also Glickenhaus's last feature film before he retired from the industry.[2]

Reception edit

The film received overwhelmingly negative reviews. In the TV Guide, the reviewer said that "the utterly disintegrated plot line gives one the feeling that the narrative merely went wherever sets became available, from a smoky biker bar to a mockup of the White House kitchen to a magnificent chalet platform in the mountains, suddenly invaded by commandos for a 007-style chase/gun battle on skis".[3] The film has been described as a "scrap-heap of pasted-together and semi-coherent genre clichés".[1]

A short review on the German site TV Today stated however, "The time jumps are a bit confusing, but the 'family production' (author and director Glickenhaus filmed with his own children) has a lot of charm and is as dazzling as a comic."[4]

Awards edit

Timemaster was nominated for "Best Genre Video Release" in the 22nd Saturn Awards.[5]

Home media edit

A LD version was released in 1996.[6]
