Editorial Reviews

Circle - Sleestak scientist, Enik, has discovered that Rick, Will, and Holly's presence in this prehistoric place is preventing him from returning home. His solution is simple: the Marshalls must return to the moment in time before they plunge over the waterfall and complete their destiny. Rick refuses to believe losing their lives is the only solution, and soon comes up with another plan.

The Zarn - While scouting a mysterious marsh, Will and Rick come upon an alien spaceship. From it emerges a beautiful woman named Sharon Williams. Back at their cave the Marshalls discover they have a lot in common with Sharon, almost too much, in fact. Will and Holly become suspicious, but it's not until later that Rick realizes Sharon's a little too perfect.

This review is from: Land of the Lost Volume 4 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

One of the more imaginitive and well written Saturday morning TV series of the 70s, Land of the Lost was one of the first TV shows to feature actors realistically interacting with what appears to be blue screen special effects. In this regard it is a predecessor to such movies as Jurassic Park and even the later Star Trek series. The stories involving a father who appears to be a park ranger and his two children trapped in an artificially created space time warp and how they coped with the unique problems that entailed were generally very good. There were a few that were a bit over the top but every series has those. I would highly recommend this series to any science fiction fan, vintage TV buff and anyone who will look beyond the fact that the special effects are not what we are used to and simply enjoy the storyline. If you like Twilight Zone, you'll probably like this.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Circle of The Zarn, April 12, 2001

By

This review is from: Land of the Lost Volume 4 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Perhaps Land Of The Lost's best-written episode opens Volume Four of the recent VHS series, and is followed by the debut of the Marshalls' most unusual foe.

In Circle, the swimming hole the Marshalls use for recreation leads to a back-door entrance to the Lost City, and when they explore the resulting caves, they are pursued by Sleestak but find refuge with the Altrusian scientist Enik, played perfectly by Walker Edmiston.

Enik has discovered a stunning fact about the Marshalls - the time doorway that brought them to the Land did not perform as it should have; the result is that the Marshalls should not even be alive. All are at a loss to explain how they are alive when the doorway shows they should not be. When Enik and Rick agree on a course of action, the doorway's paradox can be resolved.

From the show's second season, Rick and Will explore a mist-covered marsh, and discover an alien spacecraft. Within is a woman who takes an immediate liking to Rick. Indeed, the compatibility between Rick and the woman seems too good to be true, to the consternation of Will and Holly.
