To my surprise this is actually a Fullmoon movie, the company well known only for cheesy horror films. Apparently they do sci-fi even worse.
Laserblast presently sits with a 2.6 rating on IMDB, which is astoundingly low. I didn't think for a second it would be that bad, it actually is.
It tells the story of a young man who finds a laser cannon in the desert, after wielding it and the necklace that came with it he is periodically transformed into a creature hellbent on destruction.
Looking at the cover you'd think the "Creature" was Gary Busey, in the film it's more an early Romero zombie.
The special effects are embarassing even for the time, the plot is riddled with holes and the whole thing comes off amateurish.
One of the worst films every made? No. Deserving of 2.6? Absolutely.
The Good:
Erm.....
The Bad:
Looks hideous
Just can't take it seriously
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
Aliens are just giant turtles without shells who wear shiney gloves
