Desert inside hourglass
I'm looking for a movie or an episode of some series, or it may even have been a short film. I only have a blurry image from one scene: Some people walking in a desert seeing nothing but sand around them. Then it cuts to a man sitting with an hourglass stearing inside it, and he says something like "I think there are bugs inside here, I can see something moving in the sand". So the people are inside the glass. Anybody remember something like this? Probably from the 90s.

Stian. There is a sandy, radiation-blasted landscape in the Doctor Who episode The Leisure Hive, which features a time-controlling device shaped like an hourglass. |

It sounds familiar to me for some reason, but I can't help with the name.

Wasn't there a seen in Krull (1983) that was something along those lines.

Here's a low quality image of the enchanted hourglass from Krull: |

Re: Desert inside hourglass
That sounds like an episode of The Outer Limits or The Twilight Zone....a more recent take on it would be the locker scene in Men In Black

The only other thing I can think of is the Doctor Who story Carnival of Monsters. The main characters find themselves in a series of interconnected locations and discover that they've landed in a Miniscope (akin to an old fashioned peep show) where the various creatures and landscapes exist in a miniaturized state for entertainment. The owner of the device at one point mentions that there's something in the workings that shouldn't be.
