Timecrimes (Los Cronocrímenes)
2007
Mode of Travel: Like a high-tech spa with a top that lowers on top of you once you’re in the water.
Reason for Travel: It’s a bit complicated, and part of the fun is not knowing the deets, but it boils down to being punished for being a peeping tom. A man named Hector (Karra Elejalde) spies on a naked girl with his binoculars and soon finds himself stabbed by a mysterious bandaged-head figure, and lured into a vat of liquid that takes him back an hour or so in time...
Overall Travel Experience: Fresh, narratively mindbending, yet tightly plotted, Nacho Vigalondo’s low-budget film gave the genre a much needed shot in the arm when it came out.
