VJP EP 196 My Science Project

On this episode of the Video Junkyard Podcast, we take a look through time and space at the 1985 sci-fi comedy "My Science Project" written and directed by Jonathan R. Betuel and starring John Stockwell, Fisher Stevens, and Dennis Hopper. When high school senior and gearhead Michael Harlan needs a science project to graduate, he sneaks into a junkyard at a military base (you know, like ya do...) and discovers an extraterrestrial engine that can manipulate time (and space). When the device starts opening portals around town, Michael and his friends must race against time (and space) to stop the onslaught of creatures out of time (and space)...you get the idea. Released against other sci-fi films like Back to the Future, does this one hold up well, or does it belong back in the junkyard? Check out this weeks episde of the Video Junkyard Podcast to find out!
