Description:
The experiment that should never have happened 41 years ago...is still going on.

Philadelphia, 1943: A top-secret experiment is underway to make U.S. Navy ships invisible to enemy radar, but something goes horribly wrong, and the Battleship Eldridge disappears. Two sailors jump overboard...and are mysteriously transported 41 years into the future. On the run and trapped by the past, can they stop the experiment that has torn a hole in time?

Michael Pare (Eddie and the Cruisers) and Nancy Allen (Carrie, Dressed to Kill) star in this provocative sci-fi action hit, executive produced by Halloween creator John Carpenter!

Amazon.com:
The Philadelphia Experiment takes as its jumping-off point an incident that is now paranormal legend, the U.S. Navy's supposed 1943 induction of an extremely powerful electromagnetic field around a destroyer in Philadelphia, causing its crew to become transparent, go insane, burst into flames, and so forth. The movie takes the tack that this was to render the ship invisible to radar, because of the war that was on. The test goes awry, however, and two of the crew leap forward in time to the filmmakers' present tense, 1984, where a similar experiment has caused a vortex that has trapped the 1943 ship and its crew along with a small Nevada town. The key to unbollixing this sad time-fracture lies in our heroes, the two time-travelling crew members, David Herdeg (Michael Paré) and Jim Parker (Bobby Di Cicco), whose electromagnetic instability keeps drawing them painfully back to the vortex to set things straight. This is silly stuff, but it's very fun silly stuff. One might cavil at gaps in plot logic, such as when Michael Paré seeks out the '80s version of his partner and finds more or less a trauma patient, while subsequent action contradicts this characterization. Still, there are plenty of still-worthy special effects, creating the requisite sense of awe and wonder. And for romantic interest, there's Nancy Allen's '80s girl paired with Michael Paré, affording plenty of amusing occasions for culture comparisons, most notably when Paré sees Ronald Reagan on TV, says, "Hey, I know that guy!" and refuses to believe he's president. --Jim Gay

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - theme continuation
The thought of this timeline style film was a great step-forward for films like Back To The Future and it's sequels. I am hoping that further storylines can be developed following this same concept in the future!

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - The Philadelphia Experiment
We enjoyed seeing this again. We'd not seen it for years. It's good viewing and will be good for our collection.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - the Philadelphia Experiment
people who love michael pare will love this movie,when Pare was young and fresh with Nancy Allen in a sci-fi about time travel.The sailors from U.S.
Eldridge were enjoying themselves before reporting for an experimental expedition in philadelphia; making a test that belived to make the whole
battle ship invisible to enemy radar.Actually, something went awry wrong and no one understands it until 41 years later.The big ship opened a time worm hole or went back through time , and two sailors ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Mediocre
I had seen this show years ago and remembered it as being better than it is.
A good story brought to film by mediocre screenwriters, a mediocre director, and mediocre actors. Above all, the direction suffered the most.
Not a bad movie or loss of time spent, just not as good as it could have been. Glad it wasn't too expensive.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Philadelphia Experiment
This movie is supposedly based on a true story. It's not the most believable movie I've ever seen but I still find it very enjoyable to watch nonetheless.
