When your watching youtube and you've had a few drinks and end up falling asleep. Then you wake up to a random video and really become invested in the story. Ever had one of those evenings.
@@j.armstrong2037That's a good one. Haven't heard that term "boozer" in 40years.😂 Thanks for the quick-trip to the past. Hope you have a good one. Gave you a thumbs-up.
No wonder this is so good! It's an amazing assemblage of talent. D. C. Fontana was a script consultant for Star Trek and she created Spock's family. Calvin Clements was known for writing scripts centered around advanced humanity. I believe he did an Outer Limits called the 6th Finger with David McCallum and ST:TOS Where No Man has Gone Before with Sally MASH Kellerman and Gary 2001:ASO Lockwood. Carl Franklin went on to an amazing career directing Denzel Washington and doing critically acclaimed work. Jared Martin worked with Joe Papp, on Dallas, and was a Founder of the BPA. One of the Source Loyalists was in a ST:TOS episode centered around a race of sterile males whose females must mate with humans by force. Finally producer Bruce Lansbury was behind the Wild, Wild West with Robert Conrad as James West, 19 century Secret Service agent and sidekick Artemus Gordon - a monster hit of the 60s.
TH-cam sure packed a lot of adverts into this but it was a pleasant blast from the past. I remember watching this pilot and the series in the late 70’s.
I remember watching this and the series here in London on a fat black and white TV and realising this is the best non-stunt programme on TV at the moment. A classic!
I remember watching this it's a child in the late seventies as I recall that it ended up being a series that didn't last but it was always interesting .
Well they end up in the middle of nowhere, but lucky there is a trail wherever they go. The actors did good from the get go, but the director is the one who makes sure an actor doesn't sound corny. This was a good flick and I got into it. They had a cool boat it had sails and a motor with cabins below deck. If only I had the money to build one like it.😊
Not too crazy about the ending, should have shown Scott being reunited with his dad and mom. Makes you wonder if Scott's dad and the two women made it back to their own time ?
I vaguely remember this, BBC, late 70's. It was the opening of a short-lived series, only about 10 episodes got made. The 90's series Sliders had a similar premise moving between different worlds each week.
I am curious where this came from. This was a TV series, and even the "pilot movie" would not have been 1:53 long. You have to allow for commercials so it would have been 1:30 at best. They spliced a lot of these together and sold them to TV stations and overseas in the 1980s, but even then, almost two hours would have made the run time awfully long for a TV station. Thank you for the post no matter where you got it. Roddy McDowall would later join the crew and it got a lot better. They still canceled way too soon.
I remember this it was a TV series back in the 1970s actually late seventies I was a teenager back then I love the show but it was canceled unfortunately
This started off really well...a good adventure film in the offing....but then deteriorated and became sillier by the minute. Can't recommend even though it had good stars in it even they seemed to give up
As of February 2024, Humanity has yet to harness the awesome power of translucent Perspex. And don't you really hate when your souffle falls at the very end and turns into a blackened biscuit?
The great D.C. Fontana, the best writer of the original Star Trek series! So many shades of Star Trek story lines in here, and at least one Star Trek alum, Jason Evers, (Atar), who starred in the episode entitled "Wink Of An Eye', from Season 3. Also follows the same premise of Sliders and Quantum Leap, traveling between universes. Looks like it wanted to be a series?
Fontana wrote only one episode of this,"Turnabout". No contribution to this "movie" which is The Vortex (pilot) and Atlantum edited together. Atlantum is a mix of Logan's Run, Metropolis, and Those Who Walk Away from Omelas.
@@STho205I beg to differ! She had writing credits on 11 episodes, and was script consultant and story editor, writer and co-writer on many episodes! May she R.I.P. As for the contribution to this movie, honey if you can't see the shades of Trek in here, you surely don't know what you are watching. Please don't try to educate a true fan!
@@louiseclark7967 they did use Red Alert foley from star Trek, but that's about it. This production has a lot more in common with Battlestar Galactica and Buck Rogers that would use sets and costumes from the surplus of this show....as well as stock shots of the Bonaventure Hotel and several of the writers This series was a sampler of 70s sci Fi attempts like Genesis II, The Star Lost, Land of the Lost (kids adventures), and Voyagers. It was one of many.
Produced by Leonard Katzman A.K.F Dallas and two Dallas stars. Probably made on a shoe string budget with people who could actually act and way better than the offerings they spend a couple of hundred million on today. Thanks.
Movies amd TV was great back then Great plots ,great actors and actress along with good lines ,usually Way better stuff than the crap they've made since the 1980s
For it's time it was pretty good but when you compare it to today's films, we are spoilt so it becomes amusing, though the acting was excellent. The ending was left hanging in the air. Very frustrating. Maybe they were hoping for a sequel? Plus you never found out what happened to his Father.
Globalism works in the future. You should be able to ask Laken Riley about globalization today. The end doesn't justify the means, the means determines the end.
The group separating, especially the boy's Dad, without him, was very counter intuitive to human nature. They didn't show, or I didn't catch, at what point they separated, or what happened to the Dad and Susan Oliver, for the rest of the movie, unless the Atlanteans were supposed to have sent them back home. We were left hanging, on that count, unless I missed that, also. I am not reviewing it for that information, whichever the case. Nice legs on the mini dressed women, I must say. Best part of the movie.
Is that a gun shot? Yeah. Lets run to it and see whats going on. Thats it. Stay on the path and keep looking behind you. Don't go into the brush and hide.
Was this a pilot or a rip off of Gilligan's Island? They get on the boat there is a storm shipwrecked and lost on an island. Then in the second part it looks like Lost ripped this movie off. Also I was expecting Puff N Stuff to show up. Looked like they were making it up as they went along.
This movie is .... well not the greatest. The talent however is amazing. Storyline was awful. But I just love movies like this. However, I am a huge fan of old black and white sci fi.

Yep.
Also have fallen asleep watching something, and had it seep into my dreams.
That's weird too.
I watched the series on Tv in Costa Rica when i was a child. I love it. Old movies and old shows are amazing.

That's a lot of info, you were in the industry?
This is why we don't take you to movies!

Dude, I remember seeing this in the late '80s in the movie theatre in Romania! I was 6. The very first scene brought it all back!
check out 1974 Horror Express....
I use to watch this; it was a television series...
Vary good movie! The old saying still applies: "Power Corrupts, Absolute Power Corrups ABSOLUTELY!!!"
I wanted to watch this movie to the end even though, the longer you watch the more ads interrupt the movie. Right now....EVERY 3 MINUTES!!!
TH-cam premium, no ads.
19 bux /month
@AlanBadillionTrahern hope by now u have a good adblocker I use BRAVE. No ads whatsoever!! 😄
Was a great short lived sci-fi show late 1970's needs a remake and would still work today
Yes it would

I remember watching this it's a child in the late seventies as I recall that it ended up being a series that didn't last but it was always interesting .
Wow a full movie!
Oddly enough, back when I had Covid I was bored and depressed and this was the only movie that I felt like watching.
Watched this back when I was about 8, used to love the show. The people never managed to get out of the alternate reality by the end of the series.
I remember watching the series back then. Thought it was pretty good. Miss seeing Roddy Mcdowall. Guess he joined in a later episode.
Good movie I enjoyed it , better than the crap today .
Hell even the commercials back then are waaaaaaaaaaay better than any crap produced today
????
I so miss these wonderful, imaginative minds from not that far back, but i guess far enough...omg i am old as turkey! (country not bird)
I’ve sailed the Caribbean and no way I would’ve kept sailing towards something that strange while I still had control of my boat.
That boy was always in spooky 👻 things with cats 🐈 and mountains 😅
There is a film in here when you tube decide that this isn't an advert channel. At one point an advert every 60 seconds.
Well they end up in the middle of nowhere, but lucky there is a trail wherever they go. The actors did good from the get go, but the director is the one who makes sure an actor doesn't sound corny.

Thanks for posting. A great little movie and I enjoyed it a lot. Cheers.
These captains of small boats are always gruff and grouchy😂
Love movues! Ty for uploading a gem 🎉❤❤❤🙋🐈🥰❤️❤️❤️
Quite hard to work out whether I'm watching a film with adds in it, or adds with bits of a film in it ! 🤔
Half the cast ended up as main characters in Dallas at some point. 😂
Most of the series writers ended up writing for Dallas and The Waltons as well.
I smiled when I saw Dusty Farlow and Donna Krebs!
Crazy film
Thanks for posting
How to defeat the Ai that took over... pull the power plug, flip the switch.

There was another cut of this pilot with Desi Arnaz Jr. as a WW2 pilot who crashed on the island.
This started off really well...a good adventure film in the offing....but then deteriorated and became sillier by the minute. Can't recommend even though it had good stars in it even they seemed to give up
nice enjoyed thnx
Wow the unders and the elites. Sounds kind of like what's going on in the modern world.
I like their transportation, hurry up walk faster

Started out a good movie but didn't end up much !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I felt kind of sorry for the actor playing the Young boy. Mostly when he was getting mouth-to-mouth from the other actor. At least he was revived
Another Time Tunnel 😂

Operation High Jump
What does "special guest stars" actually mean?
Movies amd TV was great back then
Great plots ,great actors and actress along with good lines ,usually
Way better stuff than the crap they've made since the 1980s
A good action film. Kind of a twist on the story with one of the characters. View the film. I give it an "a" grade.
Wikipédia e apenas um filme ficção 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
why stay topside? I would be hunkering down below

terrible scenario

D.C. Fontana was involved with this?!
She and her Richard Fontana wrote episodes of The Waltons and Dallas at this time. She was a writer, a freelance script consultant and producer
Brain steak is overdone... lol
This movie with all the ads was one of the worst movies I've seen.
Supernatural power at work
Causing disappearances
Alien abduction!
Well that was corny LOL 😁
Welcome to the 1970s
Entertaining, yet a B movie for sure.
"B" is generous.
I think Jar Jar Abrams made a lousy ripoff of this called LOST . Just sayin
😂🤣😅
Warum kommt der Film nicht auf deutsch????👎👎👎👎👎👎
... eine Gelegenheit sein Englisch aufzufrischen ?😊
@@tgdomnemo5052 leider habe ich nur rusich gelernt,für englisch hat Es nicht gereicht. Trotzdem danke für Deinen Rat.👍🤗
Because the British won the war !! That's why English is the world's international language and German is not......

This movie just drug on too long
The guggenheim
Send to joel tom servo and the vacumn cleaner.snog water.copious amounts.

Sorry, terrible movie, especially towards the end.
You must remember that this was never a movie, it was a TV series. This is just a couple of episodes spliced together.
Thankyou for clearing that up .
