Time Conqueror, a lesser-known gem from 1987, dives into some intriguing themes around humanity and preservation. Fekry, our journalist protagonist, uncovers a chilling mystery involving disappearing patients at a hospital, leading him to Dr. Halim's secluded estate. The atmosphere is thick with tension and unease, as the film explores the moral implications of freezing humans. It's got that gritty, almost claustrophobic feel typical of 80s sci-fi dramas, and while the pacing may seem slow at times, it builds a creeping dread that keeps you hooked. Practical effects, although not groundbreaking, have this raw charm that adds to its uniqueness. Performances are earnest, particularly Fekry, who embodies the everyman thrown into an extraordinary situation.
