Did I see this movie?


In 1993, I was about 7 years old. I remember seeing a movie, about a day repeating itself in a timeloop, that wasn't Groundhogs Day. I also remember that the title of the movie was a time. But I thought it was rented, not seen on TV. I also vaguely remember it turned out that the guy was repeating the same day over and over again because of some (presumably bad) guy building a machine called The Accelerator or something and the main character got trapped accidentally. He breaks the loop at the end by preventing the guy from firing the machine but it explodes or something and the bad dude disappears into the machine (presumably to die or also repeat time). I also remember the other movie being more of an action/thriller then a comedy, but that was 14 years ago. Is this the same movie? Or am I thinking of another?

Haha, thanks. I'm glad it's the same movie.

I do remember thinking when I watched it years ago that it was good. I'll have to try to find it again so I can watch it and see if I still like, lol.

Thanks for your help!

That is quite freaky...

I came looking for this movie I had seen ages ago and my only recollections were eerily similar to yours.

-Guy has love interest who ends up working with him by the end of the movie to stop the bad guy.
-There is a time looping machine you lie down in.
-Bad guy falls and dies when machine is destroyed.

But from reading the description on the imdb page this did not seem to match my memories but your post certainly did, thanks!

Now I don't remember what year I saw it, but it was on TV so if it was '93 I would have been 8.
