Movie Reviews of Trancers
Movie Review: Don't mess with Deth
Summary: 5 Stars
A science-fiction fantasy adventure set in Angel City (Los Angeles) in the year 2257. Jack Deth (Tim Thomerson) is a Trancer-hunter. Deth's mission in life is to hunt down members of a phsyic cult of zombie-like creatures called Trancers, under the control of a man named Martin Whistler. However, Whistler has escaped back in time to become one of his ancestors, in 1985 Los Angeles.I like to say this is the Evil Dead (or Army of Darkness) of the Sci-Fi genre. Evil Dead is acclaimed as being one of the best horror movies for what it could do with its low-budget, Trancers does this in the same fashion. Tim Thomerson plays Jack Deth, who could go one-on-one with any hero in any movie. Deth has some great lines in the movie which are often quite funny, if your name was Jack Deth, you know you would talk in the 3rd person don't you!?
The special effects, although not great by todays standards, do get the job done. The soundtrack to this movie is also pretty good. The movie itself gets a full 5 out of 5 stars, although the DVD could have been much better. This is a must for any action or sci-fi fan to put into their collection.
Overall : 5/5

One of the greatest movie ever made! I wish all the other ones were out as well! I had 7 of them on vhs! I miss them! Jack death is totally cool in it!!
Great special effects!
Great story! The time is the future and the country has changed! Police are called troopers and that is what jack is!
His job is to kill trancers to save the human race. He is a man that you can count on to do his job. In the future there is a war between the humans and the trancers with whistler who is the head of the trancers to went down the line to the past in the body of his ancestor who was a police officer. Jack must fight impossible odds to try to save whistler ancestor and himself and the world. Just a little bit to get the juices flowing!
Movie Review: Trancer I review
Summary: 5 Stars
If you like typical 80's schlock sci-fi, this movie is for you! I loved it when I saw it originally, and still do today! Who doesn't think Tim Thomerson is handsome with his greased-look 80's hair? Helen Hunt always has been one of my favorites also! I only wish the entire series was on DVD, but alas...it's not! Unless you liked it originally when it came out in the 80's you probably won't get it, but my gang liked all of Jack Deth's movies!Movie Review: I Think One Reviewer Had The Wrong DVD In Mind
Summary: 5 Stars
Another reviewer seems to be describing a different DVD release - "the blank screen in the middle of the movie". So, I am off-setting that 1-star rating with my 5-star rating. (I wish that I could do more, but ....)
It's one of my favorite movies and I rate it, the _movie_, 4.5 stars.
Regards,
Ed

The whole series of Movies was great for Science Fiction. It was different yet interesting at the same time. Reminds me of the younger days.
