A taut thriller interweaving sci-fi fantasy and a story of deadly industrial intrigue, Timeslip is a 1955 feature from Emmy Award-winning British writer and director Ken Hughes. Showcasing strong performances from American leads Gene Nelson and Faith Domergue, this rare feature (also known as The Atomic Man) is presented here in a brand-new transfer from the original film elements in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.

A near-lifeless body is recovered from the Thames, shot twice in the back, and science reporter Delaney identifies the victim as Stephen Rayner, a nuclear physicist who works at a nearby research institute. Delaney goes to the institute and is introduced to a man everyone believes to be Rayner; the likeness is uncanny. Delaney returns to the hospital and questions the now conscious man, who mumbles the name VASQUO and initials U.T.C. ... a revelation that unfolds into a drama of international espionage.
