Movie Reviews of LaserblastMovie Review: Passable Sci-Fi Schlock Summary: 3 StarsLaserblast is an old Full Moon picture back before Full Moon was actually Full Moon. Ya dig? Yup, good old Charles Band is behind this wacky tale of aliens, pot smoking police deputies and lasers.
The fairly simple story is about Billy(I'm not sure how old he's supposed to be, but he looks about 20) who finds a laser gun in the desert, left behind by some absent minded aliens. When the laser is used with the snazzy necklace that comes with it, it's....well, a laser, you know? It also seems to have an addictive quality about it. It turns it's user into a green faced, fanged monster looking type as well. It also wedges an odd metallic hunk into Billy's chest(a plot point never really expanded upon). Billy starts off by laserblasting folks who get his dander up, but soon he's stumbling around like a drunken ape blasting everything he feels like until the absent minded aliens can track him down and put an end to his rampage.
The film succeeds in making the benefits of owning your own laser gun look much crappier than you've probably imagined. As you can probably guess, the film is quite low budget. Most of the budget probably went for the stop motion animated aliens and the numerous exploding vehicles. The film looks quite dark and grainy. Roddy McDowall(and Keenan Wynn for that matter) is completely wasted in a tiny and pointless role that is totally beneath him and could have been played by some random schmuck. Roddy must have owed someone a favor coz his appearance is solely there for the purpose of the film makers to say they had Roddy McDowall in their film.
Lasrblast was fun in it's own way, but a few too many dragging parts and not enough of the good stuff.
Summary of LaserblastBillys never been able to fit in where he lives suddenly thats not a problem anymore. A desert exploration leads to an explosive discovery for billy his own personal laser gun. Each time billy fires the laser he begins to mutate little by little into an alien.
