A TV movie so 70s it time-traveled FROM the past to haunt us.
A scientist builds a machine that will enable him to travel back and forth in time, but when he puts it in motion, he gets more than he bargained for.
Practical Effects
The time machine itself: gloriously retro-futuristic disco egg.
Costume
Morlocks in what appear to be thrift-store werewolf masks.
Director
Henning Schellerup
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was part of a wave of 1970s TV movies adapting classic sci-fi on shoestring budgets, riding the coattails of Planet of the Apes' success.
The Morlocks here are far less menacing than the 1960 film version, reflecting TV censorship of the era that softened Wells' original social horror.
