Experimental pilot testing a new rocket powered craft (actually a Convair F-102 interceptor) manages to fly into the future and land at the now deserted airbase he left. He ends up in a city with people who are suspicious he is a spy and who want to keep him to procreate with the rulers daughter because the majority of the inhabitants are sterile. He manages to escape and return to his own time but "with consequences".

"Beyond the Time Barrier" is a 1960 low-budget sci-fi film about an early space flight that accidentally turns into a time travel adventure. What made it fun for me was that the protagonist travels to 2024—the very year I watched the film. While the plot has its fair share of holes, and the set design is basic, it was enjoyable to see how the 1960s envisioned a future that we now live in. The film reflects the fears and anxieties of its time, adding a nostalgic charm to the experience.
