FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Denver, Colo. – July 18, 2025 – Fathom Entertainment, the leading specialty distributor of content to theatrical partners worldwide, is once again bringing to the big screen a longtime fan favorite. Join RiffTrax’s Michael J. Nelson, Kevin Murphy, and Bill Corbett of “Mystery Science Theater 3000” fame, as they crack jokes over the 1994 feature film Timecop, starring Jean-Claude Van Damme. “RiffTrax Live: Timecop,” is coming to theatres nationwide on Thursday, August 14 and Tuesday, August 19 at 7PM (local time).
About “RiffTrax Live: Timecop”
In the futuristic world of 2004, Jean-Claude Van Damme isn’t just doing leg splits, he’s splitting the very barriers of space and time. Get ready for Timecop riffed live in theatres! Yes, it’s one word!
After the death of his wife (Mia Sara) at the hands of time-traveling goons, Jean-Claude Van Damme is recruited to an elite task force of time-based police officers. Why does the government have an elite task force of time-based police officers? Timecop may, or may not, have answers to that perfectly reasonable question!
Unfortunately, a U.S. Senator (Ron Silver) has gained access to their system of time travel and he’s using it to commit unspeakable evils – huge campaign finance violations – across generations. Imagine a nightmarish world where stuff like THAT happens. You can’t!
Will the Timecops stop the senator in time to save the future?
