Future cop 5

David Nutter directs this TV style fifth movie directly after his own fourth instalment. Seems Charles Band and Full Moon handed over the responsibility to a load of people unfamiliar with the series and told them to make a movie (well, two actually). Cast try their best, script is lifeless and the wooden, dull and additive Deth is here simply too drained to really work. Like the fourth movie this is a strange hybrid of Robin Hood (seems to be set in Sherwood Forest at times), Shakespeare plays and The Three Musketeers (though of course this is The One Musketeer!). This (and Trancers 4) were filmed at Charles Band's family castle in Romania and though an exceptionally striking place and one used to fabulous results in other films, here is is merely an option for cheapness. Unbelievably Trancers 6 (made several years later and virtually unrelated - something about a daughter) is even more obscure than the fourth and fifth instalments combined - and, Yes, they probably should be.

Please no more, the fist 3 were good but now there just plane bad, don't bother with anymore. I watched this movie one night when I had nothing to do, And you know what? I wasted my time. The acting in this film was very good but the film itself sux. I hope that PART 6 is better.

4/10

Unfortunately, a step down from the fourth part here as we see the vampire trancers are now on the run since Jack Deth (Tim Thomerson) and the Tunnel Rats have run them out in this direct sequel to TRANCERS 4. Deth is now looking for a rock within the Castle of Unrelenting Terror that can take him back home to his own universe.

If you really enjoyed part 4 this might be for you, just so you can see how it turns out, but subtracting the credits and the recap I think they totally could have combined the two scripts into one movie that may have ran an hour and 45 minutes or so. They really kind of dragged this one out so they could make another movie. This one is missing that good old Trancers feel that did exist in the first 3 movies I would say. Both Alan Oppenheimer and Stephen Macht return as well. Same writer (Peter David) and director (David Nutter, who went on to direct some popular TV shows like X-FILES, ER and GAME OF THRONES to name a few) as Part 4.

Filmed back-to-back with the equally bad "Trancers 4: Jack of Sword" on cheap Romanic filming locations, this final entry in the Trancers series (unless you count a cameo by Thomerson in Evil Bong) is more than a disappointment. Tim Thomerson once again plays Jack Deth and this time has to find some mythical MacGuffin to stop an evil Trancer king. Chases through castles and forests ensue. The original film was a lot of fun because it was as if someone from the Blade Runner universe stepped into modern day Los Angeles. I'm not sure seeing Rick Deckard in a Romanian castle nearly as interesting. Stick with the first film to leave on a high note and maybe part 2 and 3 if you're in a forgiving mood, but skip part 4 and 5. Dullsville.

Our hero Jack Deth is still stuck in the other dimension playing dungeons and dragons, but this time he is trying to find a way home. throughout the movie he is on a quest to retrieve a jewel to help him get back home. This film plays better than the previous one because they do not have to set up the story of Jack going to the Dark Ages and fighting noble Trancers with swords and magic. This one was more of an adventure film because they are on a quest whereas the one before they are just trying to fight Trancers. This movie is bad, do not get confused with that, but it is more entertaining and the story did not drag as much. This is the last Jack Deth Trancers movie and instead of going away with a roar he goes away with a whimper. Do not even bother watching the 6th Trancers movie because Jack Deth isn't even in it. Indstead his daughter is hunting Trancers. That movie is awful to the point of unwatchable, but as least you can watch Trancers 5 and not feel so bad for yourself because it is just a little waste of your life, unlike the 6th one. Avoid this movie.
