Timerider: The Adventure of Lyle Swann (1982)

Look at that cover! Just… wow! It’s like a ZX Spectrum game ripping off Tron (1982). And Fred Ward on a dirt bike? Are those Cowboys? Are we whizzing back in time to the Wild West? Sweet mother of fuck! How could I not watch it?! It can’t possibly be as entertaining as all that.
It isn’t. Top guy Lyle Swann farts around on his bike to a cheesy rock soundtrack for about a third of the entire film. There’s anachronistic shenanigans, a love interest (Belinda Bauer), gun-toting bad guys who were born to lose, a predictable paradox and then it ends.
