Travelers

About This Movie

Travelers (2017) is an intriguing indie flick that dives into the psychic realm, blending sci-fi elements with a touch of British charm. Tom and Jessie’s journey starts off feeling almost whimsical but quickly spirals into a tense narrative as those alien duplicators throw a wrench into their lives. The pacing has its ups and downs—some moments linger a bit too long, but it adds to the suspense in a way. The practical effects used for the alien transformations are a nice touch; they feel raw and tangible, grounding the film in a way that CGI often fails to achieve. Overall, the performances of the leads bring a relatable quality to their extraordinary circumstances, making you invested in their plight against the lurking government forces.

Travelers has seen limited home media releases, making physical copies somewhat rare among collectors. The film's unique blend of telepathy and alien themes garners interest, although its unknown director and lack of big marketing means it's often overlooked. This scarcity, combined with its distinct take on the sci-fi genre, makes it an interesting piece for those who appreciate deeper cuts in film history.
