The Amazing Mr. Blunden: A Time Travel Movie You May Have Missed (Unless you are British)
Sunday, 8 September, 2024
I’m joined by “Introvoid” Steve Barnes and “Voidmaster” Nate Dunn to discuss one of my favorite childhood time travel movies, Lionel Jeffries’ The Amazing Mr. Blunden (1972). We discuss my history with this movie, the intricacies of time travel by drinking, and what modes of time travel we think should be created. You may have never seen the film, but it was a holiday mainstay in British homes in the 1970s and 80s. Description of the movie: It's a grungy night in smoggy London 1918. Mr. Blunden visits the home of the Allen family, consisting of the newly widowed Mrs. Allen, Lucy, Jamie, and little Benjamin. He offers Mrs. Allen the opportunity to take a job as a caretaker of an old derelict country manor called Langley Park. Once she's out of the room, he asks the two eldest children to help him correct a wrong he committed 100 years ago. He leaves the details fuzzy but assures them they will know what to do when the time is right. Our adventures with Mr. Blunden and these two children Lucy and Jamie, will involve ghosts, time travel, magic potions, sentient libraries, attempted murder by poison, attempted insurance fraud, romance, and hidden heritage. Available to watch on Amazon Prime. About Steve: Steve Barnes is guitarist for stoner metal band Introvoid, and also plays guitar for the cover band Rebecca Crow. He is currently recapping the Time Bandits TV series and interviewing cast members from that show. All of Steve's stuff can be found at Sweetchildoftime.com. Nate: Follow Nate at @Void.master on IG. He is currently working on an album that will be released in 2025 called The Dank Arts. Also follow @Adoomcult to hear the band Nate is playing with in Pittsburgh, a fun blend of Appalachian horror and doom music.
