  • This week on Celluloid Psychosis, TJ Bowser and Paul Ashford travel through time to review the cult sci-fi classic Trancers (1985), directed by Charles Band. Starring Tim Thomerson as the grizzled time-traveling cop Jack Deth and Helen Hunt as his unlikely 1980s ally Lena, this pulpy gem blends noir detective vibes with futuristic thrills.

    The hosts dive into the film's campy charm, from its low-budget yet inventive special effects to its quirky humor and memorable one-liners. They break down Jack Deth's mission to hunt down zombie-like "Trancers" in the past and discuss the chemistry between Thomerson and Hunt, which adds unexpected heart to this genre mashup.

    Expect a deep dive into the visual style, the film’s unique take on time travel, and its place in the pantheon of cult classics. Plus, TJ and Paul share their thoughts on the sequels and how Trancers helped define the Full Moon Features brand.
