Timestalker follows hapless heroine Agnes through time as she repeatedly falls for the wrong guy, dies a grim death, gets reincarnated a century later, before meeting him again and starting the cycle anew. It is one story told over many periods, all with the messy thrills and spills that come with daring to follow your heart. Or maybe your loins... Agnes’ only hope in avoiding this violent fate is by finally reaching spiritual enlightenment; but how can she ever wise up when she’s destined to be a fool for love? Some lessons are just too hard to learn in one lifetime.

Critics Consensus

Leveraging fantasy to explore how bad life choices are evergreen, Timestalker is a clever and imaginative sophomore feature from director and star Alice Lowe.

Sight & Sound

A rollicking, risk-taking and deftly funny subversion of fairytale romance, Timestalker shows off Lowe’s admirable ambition

Timestalker is a demented romp through romance with a sense of humor so sharp that of course there's gushing blood.

Picture Sally Potter’s Orlando repurposed as a Blackadder special.

…the writer, director and star of Timestalkers, Alice Lowe, is a comic talent to watch; her debut is huge of scope and wide of imagination, and she’s always willing to go for self-deprecating laughs…

Rated: 3/5

Hey, Have You Seen ...?

Lowe packs a ton of messaging into a very tightly wound package from patriarchy to feminism and fate to free will. It works more than not.

Rated: 6/10

Timestalker is a clever idea in need of some substance.

Alice Lowe is always unique and interesting and I will always look forward to seeing anything she's making. This definitely has her awesome dry wit and dark sense of humour peppered throughout, but I just felt like Timestalker had the feel of a meandering video clip, rather than a film. I felt like the Nick Frost moments weren't used to their full advantage either, I was waiting for those scenes to really take off, and they felt a little flat and wasted to me. An enjoyable watch, a few giggles along the way, but did expect a bit more out of the plot and great cast.

Went to see a preview screening and you know its going to be bad when the writer/director introduces the film and explain its a comedy and you can laugh. We didn't. Can't fathom the 'critics' praise - it's just not funny.

It was a bit of a fever dream. I think a few more years behind the camera she will do some good work. Still bit student filmy.

Utter garbage, self indulgent nonsense. The only way to see any point to this film is to abandon any sense of art, narrative or creativity. A hideous kidnapping of the filmmaker's art.
