    In Victorian England, author H.G. Wells (Malcolm McDowell) lets his friends in on a secret: he's successfully built a time machine and intends to use it to travel to the future in search of a utopian society. But one of those friends, Dr. John Leslie Stevenson (David Warner) has his own secret: he's Jack the Ripper. After the doctor uses the machine, Wells travels to 1970s San Francisco in pursuit of him, where he's helped a beautiful, independent bank employee (Mary Steenburgen).
