Confession time: no, I have never seen 1987's The Time Guardian, though I've been aware of it for some time.  It's occasionally popped up in my Science Fiction and Fantasy film history reading -- not as a subject of renown -- chiefly because its cast includes the original space princess herself, Carrie Fisher.  Rounding out the primary players is Tom Burlinson (I know him from 1982's The Man From Snowy River, one of my personal all-time favorite Westerns) and Dean Stockwell (of both Quantum Leap and Syfy's Battlestar Galactica fame).  Those are some heavy hitters, but the word on the street regarding this film has never been all that good.

As for the plot?  Well, it sounds like a fairly traditional time travel yarn, one where the folks in a dying tomorrow head back to the past to change how history unfolded so as to sve themselves from extinction, but that's all I know of it.

This is another release wherein I've a relationship with the distributor, and I believe I've been promised a complimentary copy for coverage on SciFiHistory.Net.  But sometimes those things fall through the cracks, and -- as I've said before -- some outlets don't mail out those copies until all of the retail surge has been handled (gotta make a buck first, I understand that), so I'd encourage regular readers to watch this space: if one does show up, I'll be happy to give this one some added promotion as it's right up my alley.

Folks interested in making a purchase can head over to Amazon.com.  It looks like they're in short supply at present.

As always, thanks for reading ... and live long and prosper!
