Timelock

A science fiction movie set on a penal colony planet. There the similarity with Alien 3 ends. Most of the bad guys act like gay porn stars, the ex bond Girl, Maryam d'Abo, naturally can't act. A slight saving Grace is Ayre Gross, a well known TV actor, who is the best thing in a bad movie.

Gonna chalk this up to good actors (Ayre Gross, Maryam D'Abo, Jeffrey Meek, Nicholas Worth, Martin Kove, etc) blackmailed to be in a student film. Wow.

Although this movie is set 250 years in the future they still use the same floppy disks we used 5 years ago and the same guns they used in cop movies 20 years ago except with an added whoosing noise I guess the budget didn't run to make super duper men in black style basookas and the lead villain is soooooooo camp it's beyond a joke. Former Bond girl Maryam d'abo must have really fallen on bad times to make this trash. The only redeeming feature in this tripe is arye gross wisecracking thief good guy who helps d'abo fight the bad guys.

although it's utter trash, I still enjoyed this movie mainly because it didn't take itself too seriously

So it gets a Healthy 7/10 from me

I found this on a list of bad Sci Fi movies, and with my Bad Movie obsession, and my love of Sci Fi, I had to watch it.

This one is a stinker, though. I don't feel its on the level of an it's so bad it's good movie. It's just mediocre Sci Fi, poor "effects", and just bad acting. Which...is expected when I hunt down these horrible films. But usually there is at least an underlying sense of fun and/or that nice coating of cheese. Timelock doesn't have that extra.

I struggled through this one and lost attention quickly.

Smoke was good, but did nothing to help save this movie. Moving on to the next one quickly!

This is the type of movie that you rented on VHS from your local store back in the day, consumed with junk food and a few beers, and then perhaps evaluate your life choices after the night is done. The point being, this is not a movie to take at all seriously. It's a camp throwaway affair, poorly conceived and put together. If you start to think at all while watching this, you'll be struck by how tragic a state the careers of Martin Kove and Maryam d'Abo must have been at the time. It's a step just above amateur, as in the very next step. Only really worth a watch if you have a passing interest in bad movies.
