This is in Germany a very funny scene, because when he screams the womans name, it sounds like „Wiener“ which is also the name of a special kind of sausage.

00:12 => I'LL BE BACK! Lol. "Time Machine" is a great movie, and Rod Taylor had so much charisma. :)

Mathieu T I sure would've danced on his rod.

Answer me, damn you!!........All Clear....... What, what was that?......All Clear. Still a great movie after all these years. RIP Aussie Rod Taylor. In Fact, RIP all the adults in this movie and a lot of the Kids...most of them would be in their 80's now, or very close to it.......this is even before the Beatles era :).

Yvette Mimieux is 78.
