Ticking Clock


Investigative reporter Lewis Hicks, who doesn’t trust cops, pursues a gory time-traveling serial murderer who’s tracking down all those people whom he thinks did him wrong in life.

I’m surprised that this movie never made it to the theaters in the states. It generated good tension for a Fugitive-type police-don’t-the-protagonist type of story. On the other hand, the ending shows zero comprehension of the grandfather paradox or universes that split upon time travel, but never mind. —Michael Main
Lewis: What if you could kill Hitler or Manson when they were a child?
Polly: No way. They’re children. They’re not Hilter or Manson, not yet. No.
Cuba Gooding Junior (as defiant Lewis Hicks) stands in front of Neal McDonough
                (as angry, gun-toting Keech) and a large, fiery clock.
