Editorial Review:

The experiment that should never have happened 41 years ago...is still going on.

Philadelphia, 1943: A top-secret experiment is underway to make U.S. Navy ships invisible to enemy radar, but something goes horribly wrong, and the Battleship Eldridge disappears. Two sailors jump overboard...and are mysteriously transported 41 years into the future. On the run and trapped by the past, can they stop the experiment that has torn a hole in time?

Michael Pare (Eddie and the Cruisers) and Nancy Allen (Carrie, Dressed to Kill) star in this provocative sci-fi action hit, executive produced by Halloween creator John Carpenter!

theme continuation
The thought of this timeline style film was a great step-forward for films like Back To The Future and it's sequels. I am hoping that further storylines can be developed following this same concept in the future!

We enjoyed seeing this again. We'd not seen it for years. It's good viewing and will be good for our collection.

people who love michael pare will love this movie,when Pare was young and fresh with Nancy Allen in a sci-fi about time travel.The sailors from U.S.
Eldridge were enjoying themselves before reporting for an experimental expedition in philadelphia; making a test that belived to make the whole
battle ship invisible to enemy radar.Actually, something went awry wrong and no one understands it until 41 years later.The big ship opened a time worm hole or went back through time , and two sailors jump ship to find
themselves in the present era.John Carpenter does a great job here. viewing is a great fun to see and understand what are taking place. The story is superbly told, and in balance. The fx is much better than the
present time which is too much work of computer.The picture is sharp and clear, and worthy for collection.Buy and enjoy it always.

Mediocre
I had seen this show years ago and remembered it as being better than it is.
A good story brought to film by mediocre screenwriters, a mediocre director, and mediocre actors. Above all, the direction suffered the most.
Not a bad movie or loss of time spent, just not as good as it could have been. Glad it wasn't too expensive.

Philadelphia Experiment
This movie is supposedly based on a true story. It's not the most believable movie I've ever seen but I still find it very enjoyable to watch nonetheless.
