Do you think when they made this… they thought people would have seen this in 2024 (and later), as this movie TAKES PLACE in 2024???
Cool set designs tho but it was a wee bit boring

In runtime and in depth, Beyond the Time Barrier is caught in between an epic sci-fi movie and a Twilight Zone episode. Guess that's why the logline tells you everything that happens.
