 | Back to the Future - The Complete Trilogy (Widescreen Edition)
Buy new: $19.99 / Used from: $13.96 Not only is the first in the trilogy the best film ever made, but it is also the most thought-out exploration of the space-time continuum seen in film. The other two are fun adventures through time, but do not compare to the first. Brilliant!!!
|
 | Donnie Darko (Widescreen Edition)
Buy used from: $3.99 Another well thought-out and executed time travel film. With each viewing, more and more information can is discovered. Richard Kelly's script is labyrinthine in nature and I can still not find a hole in the plot/time travel theory.

 | Rant: The Oral Biography of Buster Casey by Chuck Palahniuk
Buy new: $10.17 / Used from: $6.44 Chuck Palahniuk writes books that deal with real characters often dealing with extraordinary situations. Om Rant, he creates his most confusing, yet amazing story so far. Tells the story of Rant, a man traveling through time told from the memories of those who were close to him.

 | Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Two-Disc Special Edition) (Harry Potter 3)
Buy used from: $1.98 The best Harry Potter film so far! Not only is this a wonderful fantasy film, the time travel aspects in it are flawless. When Harry and Hermione travel back in time to try and correct the present, their actions had already been done, furthering the idea of fate and all changes in time have already been changed.

 | Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Book 3) by J. K. Rowling
Buy used from: $0.71 I'm sure I'll take flack from die hard H. Piddy fans, but I think the movie of the book is better! Don't get me wrong, this book is FANTASTIC, but the movie deals with the time travel foreshadowing much better than the book did.
|
 | The Terminator (Special Edition)
Buy used from: $4.73 What really makes this movie so mind-blowing is the fact that John Conner sent back HIS FATHER to try and protect his mother in the past. If Kyle Reese was never sent back to protect Sarah Conner (and eventually fall in love and impregnate her) than John Conner would never have existed. Crazy...
|
 | Terminator 2 - Judgment Day (Extreme DVD)
Buy new: $8.49 / Used from: $1.98 While much bigger in scope and action, T2 is still a very interesting time travel film. As with the first film, the ideas of fate and the unchangeable future are again explored.
|
 | Terminator 3 - Rise of the Machines (2-Disc Widescreen Edition)
Buy used from: $0.97 While not as good as the first two films, this third entry still deals with some very major and important ideas that the other films brought up. Most importantly the idea that Skynet will always bring about the end of the world, no matter what anyone does in the future, past or present to try and stop it. It is pre-ordained.

 | Slaughterhouse-Five: A Novel by Kurt Vonnegut
Buy new: $10.20 / Used from: $5.23 A story of a World War I soldier "unstuck in time" who cannot control where or when he will end up any given moment. Very interesting and considered one of the greatest books written, especially by Vonnegut.
|
 | 12 Monkeys (Special Edition)
Buy new: $8.49 / Used from: $2.15 One of Terry Gilliam's more serious works. The ending to this film will shock and sadden you to no end! One of Brad Pitt's greatest performances.
|
 | La Jetee/Sans Soleil (Criterion Collection)
Buy new: $35.49 / Used from: $22.95 La Jetee is the film that 12 Monkeys was based on. Told with a series of photographs rather than a moving film, it's very interesting and unique. The final shot of a woman laying in bed becomes quite shocking when she opens her eyes since it is the only shot that is not a still photo.
|
 | The Time Machine, Literary Touchstone Classic by H.G. Wells
Buy new: $3.99 / Used from: $3.59 Possibly the first work of fiction to deal with time travel. Still very relevant and creates some very interesting ideas.
|
 | Deja Vu
Buy new: $11.49 / Used from: $1.19 A very underrated film! The machine presented in this film that allows you to witness the future is amazing! Some major plot holes make it one of the least "perfect" of the items on this list, but still entertaining none the least.
