Thank you! I honestly can't remember I've seen that film and I must admit that I mainly connect Malcolm McDowell to psychopaths ( due to A Clockwork Orange ):>)

He plays a good guy in Time After Time. In fact, he plays H. G. Wells. In the movie, Jack the Ripper uses H. G. Wells's time machine to visit the future and ends up in 20th Century San Francisco, where he starts killing again. Then H. G. Wells follows him to try to catch him.

Haha! Sounds like an intriguing premise. Now I'm curious who plays Jack the Ripper. Checking IMDb, I feel I've seen the movie poster before but something tells me it's very similar to a movie poster of a more recent ( 1980s? ) film.

P.S. I was reminded of Scorsese's After Hours (1985 ) but just looked it up and it's not similar, besides the pocket watch.

Enjoy your weekend! :>)

David Warner -- Jennings the photographer from The Omen--plays Jack. One of my favorite Jacks as a matter of fact. I just wrote a longer piece about this film on my blog.

I wanted to say that my favorite Jack is probably Jack Nicholson as Jack Torrance in The Shining but I get what you mean... Jack The Ripper.

A post on different Jack the Ripper movies and performances would be interesting too, I think.

Will check your post out in a bit.

Bye for now! :>)

P.S. I like him as a photographer in The Omen

Yes, I was actually thinking of doing an article about actors who played the Ripper -- you read my mind. The Shining is probably my all-time favorite movie.

I thought I already mentioned I was a psychic but perhaps I just thought ( about telling ) it. I recently watched the shining for what's probably the 15th time. I love it! :>)
