Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The "TV Movie" Kill or be Killed consists of two episodes from the vintage (1966-67) Irwin Allen TV fantasy series The Time Tunnel. The premise: research scientists Tony Newman (James Darren) and Doug Phillips (Robert Colbert), working on a time-travel project, are trapped in their own invention, the Time Tunnel. Each week, our heroes travel backward and forward in time, their adventures augmented by miles of stock footage from the 20th Century-Fox vaults. The episodes included herein share a "World War II" theme. In "The Day the Sky Fell Down," Doug and Tony find themselves in Pearl Harbor on December 6, 1941. And in "Kill Two by Two," the year is 1945: Newman and Phillips are marooned on a Pacific island, where they are stalked by a Japanese soldier.
