7/10
I saw this movie twice in 1973 or 74 or 75.

I consider Idaho Transfer to be a unique movie, and rate it as being a good movie because of its uniqueness. It is already known that its main flaw is a lack of explanation regarding some aspects of the storyline. I went back a week later to see it again to try to understand it better. When I saw it the first time, it had a surprising brief scene of partial nudity, for a PG movie in the mid-70's. When I went back the second time, the theater had cut out the brief nude scene, taking away one of the few things that did make sense --relating to time travel. There is conflicting information on the Internet about when it came out; 1971, or 1973, or 1975, and I'm not sure but 1973 sounds right. I'm going to buy it on VHS soon, if I can't get it on DVD, and it would be worth the money to have a copy of the original uncut version. It says a lot about the movie to tell you that I would pay to see it again in a theater. It should be a cult-classic. This would be an excellent movie to remake today, with a more clear storyline, rather than better special effects.
