'Time Walker' (1982) - Tom Kennedy.

One-time director, Tom Kennedy's patience-warping, slow stalking creature feature about the crude awakening of a far flung extraterrestrial long sealed in King Tut's tomb is now quite the antiquity in of itself! Not long after our handsome college professor, Douglas McCadden (Ben Murphy) disturbs the time-encrusted seal to a long-buried Egyptian sarcophagus the schlocky singularities start to mount, not the least being a catastrophically caustic, livid green mold, that if touched 'Street Trashes' the poor schmoe in seconds! Naughty student,Ken 'Hell Night' Brophy' opportunistically purloins the deadly alluring crystals buried alongside the cosmic mummy and once these glistering gemstones are fatefully distributed amongst the student body said crystal-wearing student bodies start to kaleidoscopically corrupt in vivid 'The Incredible Melting Man' stylee! and it's almost as entertaining as it sounds!

This is a galaxy far far far away from being a classic monster movie, but it isn't a catastrophically awful movie like 'Manos: The Hands of Fate' or 'Hostel'.'Time Walker' exists in its very own amiable no man's land of mothballed mediocrity, amateur theatrics and missed dramatic opportunity. For all its myriad missteps it has three things going for it, abundant charm, some prodigious B-Movie acting clout and a stirring score by horror maestro, Richard ' Re-Animator' Band! The cast includes such Drive-in luminaries as: Nina 'Motel Hell' Axelrod, Ken 'Hell Night' Brophy, James 'Return of The Living Dead' Karen, Austin 'Assault on Precinct 13' Stoker, Melissa 'Invasion U.S.A.' Prophet, Shari 'Cannonball Fever' Belafonte', Antoinette 'Prom Night' Brewer and fellow Precinct 13 alumnus, Darwin Joston as the Stoic, non-smoking Lt. Plummer. While shot in the 80s 'Time Walker' feels much more akin to a Roger Corman-esque quickie from the 50s. Okay! Okay!!! so it's at best 'unintentionally' entertaining, but I'd take that over intentionally dull any day of the week!
