Deadeye Doug Dalton SASS#65449L Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 I was very young and don't remember much about it. It has to do with a human looking alien who gives a small boy a shoulder fired ray gun that will back up time for a short span. The boy uses it to back up a car that has hit a child, saving the child from injury. That's about all I remember, that one scene. Ring any bells? DDD
Yellowhouse Sam # 25171 Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 Not a clue...keep ringing. The only scifi I remember is Creature from the Black Lagoon...in 3-D.

Tell Sackett SASS 18436 Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 Doesn't ring any bells with me, and I know just about all the sci-fi from that era. TV, maybe?
Subdeacon Joe Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 Sounds more like it might have been from the original Outer Limits. Or maybe Twilight Zone or One Step Beyond.
largo casey #19191 Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 How about FROGS with Sam Elliot in it.... Largo
The Original Bad Bob Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 Sounds a lot like an old Outer Limits episode. A Martian scientist (who looks just like a regular human) has a time machine (it looked kinda like a ray gun attached to an oscilloscope) and he and his assistant come to earth to witness a murder. A woman shoots her cheating husband as he steps out of an elevator in a hotel lobby. They play it and replay it and stop action (he gets to walk around and measure stuff while everyone is frozen in time) and reverse, replay, and they change the outcome of the scene by altering where the bullet hits. It's similar to what you described, but not the same.
Tell Sackett SASS 18436 Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 I thought of that OL episode, but knew it wasn't it. I know all the OL and TZ and knew they were'nt it. Possibly a more obscure TV show or movie.

Possibly a more obscure TV show or movie. I think this was before TZ or OL. It seems to me that I saw it in the movies, not on TV, but not sure. Don't forget, I was 5 or 6 years old, 60 years ago. It may even have been a time traveler, not an alien.
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 Google back to the movies of that time era and see if any SciFi's ring a bell. Matter of fact, I think I check it out meowndangself. ..........Widder
