Additional InformationSetting the temporal starting point of the classic H.G. Wells novel in the year 1960 (rather than 1900), this engrossing adaptation follows time traveller George (Rod Taylor) as he passes through World Wars I, II, and III and finally stops in the year 802,701. There he finds an apathetic, placid people called the Eloi and falls in love with one of their number, the beauteous blonde Weena (Yvette Mimieux). To his horror, however, he learns that the Eloi's apathy is generated by a maniacal, cannibalistic underworld--and that the only way to help them is to incite a revolution. George Pal's version of THE TIME MACHINE is an exciting and faithful cinematic production of H.G. Wells's 1895 classic.

  • H G Wells' The Time Machine ( the original)

    Brilliant classic sci fi horror ahead of its time. Much much better than the remake, this 1960 original featuring Rod Taylor (RIP) and the still gorgeous Yvette Mimieux is worthy of the utmost praise. German prog rockers even took their name from the Eloi portrayed in the movie!

    It brought back memories of my youth when I first saw this film in the 1960's, on a free half from school, a long, long time ago

  • Real escapism

    I watched it simply from a nostalgic point of view having seen it in 1960 when it was first released. The special effects for that period were first class
