Neil Stryker and The Tyrant of Time (2017)

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Sick Product of a Sick System

best movie i've ever seen.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

This film is the sequel to "Evil Cult." Even if you saw that film, most likely you won't remember much about as it came out in 2003. Neil Stryker (Rob Taylor) is a paid assassin in a large group of paid assassins. He once attended MIT and learned from The Mad Scientist (Rob Taylor in a bad wig). The Mad Scientist has created time travel and plans on taking over the world by going back to December 24th, stealing all of Santa's toys and "breeding with Mrs. Claus." There are other plans, but none explained as well as this one. Neil has a device to track the Mad Scientist through time.The film was more of a generic spoof of spy and science fiction films. The scenes appeared like they were all from different genres of films spliced together. A scene with goblin puppets with the leader sounding a bit like Churchill. There was a musical number. A locker room scene. Then there was the zeppelin scene where Neil is like Tom Cruise from "Mission Impossible." There was a lot of CG work. At times I thought about Buckaroo Banzai. Walter Koenig plays an old Russian fighting goblins.This is a cult film, not for everyone. Winner for best comedy at Oregon Independent Film Festival 2016, Best feature film actor and director at Studio City Film Festival, US 2016 .Guide: F-word.Locker room nudity

Saw this on a big screen at Midwest Weirdfest. It is fun for what it is, a movie that took several years to make with no money. And the actress playing the Nurse said "There's Nudity!" ~ & Over-The-Top-Acting, which is my big gripe for the film. Regarding the acting, I thought the villain was too far over the top & our hero not far behind.They did one cool acting trick with Koenig & his "younger self" that caught me off guard, so I loved it. David Oden Stiers knew someone on set & lobbied to be in it...Another movie for the curious.

This film took ten years to make. The love and labor shows tremendously. It's so damn clever, and snarky. If I had one complaint, it would be that I don't own the Bluray as of yet. The pace of the film is fantastic. The effects are, for the most part, all practical! Goblin puppets?! The digital effects are also so wonderful (such as a way cool body force field at one point). And the cast, led by Rob Taylor and Nic Costa (both playing multiple roles), is so damn funny. They really show us a fun and original time. The Mad Scientist has the funniest voice I have ever heard. I have read reviews from around the globe that the cast and crew obviously didn't take themselves too seriously (and sure, they have a great sense of humor), but when I look at the sets that these folks built alone, with hardly a "budget", I cannot justify that summation. NSTOT should give Indie Filmmakers hope to realize their own filmmaking dreams. Give this movie a try, because it's bound to be a classic. It goes for the throat, and sucks you in. Also, cool vagina!

While it is very obvious that the special effects are cheesy and the story had some major plot devices that just come out of left field, I can say this is movie is like an homage to every 80's action flick ever made. Actually it is better than most 80's action flicks... Anyway, my teenage daughter and I watched this movie and we could not stop laughing while becoming totally engrossed into the story. Near the end, my daughter turned to me and said, "How are they going to tie the story up? There's not enough time!" She didn't intend the pun, which made it even better. Regardless, they did leave the story open for another movie. So that leaves me with only one question: When is the sequel coming out? Please be soon!!!! Oh yeah, Walter Koenig is awesome in this!!!
