I remember when they would feature this short film on the children's show "The Great Space Coaster". I used to get a kick out of the effects. Much to my surprise, I found it in a Blockbuster one day and rented it. I did not know that Phillip Michael Thomas had spot in the film as a cop years before Miami Vice.
I was sitting at the computer today and for some reason this song popped into my head "I am the wizard of speed and time. . . something something. . . dreams dreams dreams" and I remembered seeing a movie by that name when I was a kid about 20 years ago. I looked it up on google, and suddenly, it all came flooding back to me, and I remembered how seeing the movie made me, at the age of 6, want to create a special effects movie. I'm sure I made my parents rent this movie several times.
ahh I remember this video from my childhood. it was in my grandma's collection of "video's for when the grandkids come over and they are bored while the adults talk" movies. me and my cousins watched this one ALOT
This is the greatest movie ever! He's such a genius. I've been going around telling people about this movie, if enough of us out there demand for a DVD release, it just might happen :)
Hands Down one of the Greatest Movies and scenes ever made and it was seeing this film and hearing about mike when i was a kid that made me want to become a filmaker and its what made me study a degree in Special Effects
Everyone has an absolute favorite movie that they watch for when they are feeling down and need to be brought up. They may also watch it often for the sheer joy it brings them. This is a clip from one of my absolute favorite movies of all time.
You know how we make fun of Japan for producing weird shit? Well... I guess now they can make fun of us...

Btw the video's really clear. Is this laserdisc? Other ones I've seen of this are kinda blurry.

Love this movie; have it on VHS. There are no plans to release it on DVD.
I watched it when it first came out and loved it as a piece of pure innocent escapism. My daughter doesn't get it tho.... :(
