Plot: Hired by a cheap tabloid, washed-up reporter Tom Merrick (Casper Van Dien) begins collecting research for a series of articles on famous disasters. Along the way, he makes a curious discovery: In the photos of such catastrophes as the San Francisco Earthquake and the Hindenburg explosion, he notices that the same person keeps showing up in the crowds. It soon develops that a group of futuristic tourists have signed on with an organization called Thrill Seekers, which whisks its customers to historical tragedies so that they can experience the thrill of being eyewitnesses. Much to his horror, Tom finds out that these time-traveling tourists have shown up in his own town, preparing to watch a cataclysmic disaster that has not yet transpired -- one that, unless prevented, will claim the lives of Tom's ex-wife and son. Originally telecast as The Time Shifters by TBS on October 17, 1999, this made-for-cable feature has since been released to video as Thrill Seekers. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Some dvd movies are hard to find,as they are not made any more, this I think is one of them. This film was not a block buster but good. People were going back in time to see disasters as they happen in real time. They had to be very carful not to do anything to upset the flow of time or it could alternate history. I was lucky to get my hands on this film.

Surprisingly good movie!

I heard about this film from a web forum and ordered it and figured for $6 it'd be passable entertainment. I was frankly impressed to find this to be a well made movie with the exception of the character of the obligatory thick-headed, stubborn, and curmudgeonly FBI agent. I cringed when his character was on-screen. The rest of the characters were well done and even the bad guys had their sympathetic moments. Further, the movie is particularly fascinating for fans of alternate history and I'd recommend it to anyone who loves this genre of science fiction.

A thrill a minute

Casper Van Dien does a perfect shallow journalist who matures a little. Catherine Bell does a wonderful job as the eternal research assistant who gets really involved with the investigation. Theresa Saldana does a wonderful job as the self-involved expedience agent.

Of course it is a low budget film but I still enjoyed it very much! I thought the idea for the story was really cool! If you like time travel you will like this movie, atleast I did!

The best part of this movie, for me anyway (a longtime JAG fan), was watching Catherine Bell run - that's it... After reading a few reviews, I was disappointed.
