Beyond the Time Barrier is a 1960 American science fiction film. It was released in September 1960 on a double bill with The Angry Red Planet. It starred Robert Clarke (who also served as producer) and directed by Edgar G. Ulmer. Ulmer's wife Shirley acted as a script editor while their daughter Arianne Arden appeared as a Russian pilot. It was one of two low budget sci-fi films shot back-to-back in Dallas, Texas by Ulmer (the other being The Amazing Transparent Man, released earlier that year). The combined filming schedule for both films was only two weeks. <br /><br />Plot: Experimental pilot testing a new rocket powered craft (actually a Convair F-102 interceptor) manages to fly into the future and land at the now deserted airbase he left. He ends up in a city with people who are suspicious he is a spy and who want to keep him to procreate with the rulers daughter because the majority of the inhabitants are sterile. He manages to escape and return to his own time but "with consequences". <br /><br />Credits: <br />Robert Clarke as Major William Allison <br />Darlene Tompkins as Trirene <br />Arianne Arden as Captain Markova <br />Vladimir Sokoloff as the Supreme <br />Stephen Bekassy as General Karl Kruse <br />John van Dreelen as Dr. Bourman <br />Red Morgan as the Captain <br />Ken Knox as Colonel Marty Martin <br />Don Flournoy as mutant <br />Tom Ravick as mutant <br />Neil Fletcher as Air Force Chief <br />Jack Herman as Dr. Richman <br />William Shapard as General York <br />James Altgens as Secretary Lloyd Patterson <br />John Loughney as General Lamont <br />Russell Marker as Colonel Curtis <br /><br />Directed by Edgar G.
