Movie Summary  Movie: Laserblast:  The title gives it all away...or does it? What the title does not tell the audience is that the movie features more than just laser blasting. We'll begin with the incredible cast of characters. First there's Billy, our young anti-hero who is picked on by almost everyone in town, until he finds a powerful alien bazooka. He is laserblasted by the aliens, but not incinerated so that Kathy can weep over his body. As you may have guessed, Kathy is his girlfriend and she loves her little loser. Chuck and Froggy are the town bullies. Why does a big tough guy always keep a loud-mouth worm around? Thankfully, both are laserblasted. Jeep and Ungar are the town Deputies and jerks. And staying true to movie stereotype, the Deputies come in a pair of the imposing corn-fed jerk and another who is an insanely skinny jerk. These two fit the stereotype nicely and get laserblasted to donut heaven. And since this is an attempt at an alien movie, we are treated to the obligatory and sad government agent, Mr. Craig, though we never find out if he has any inkling of his own purpose in this film. There's also a simple country Doctor Mellon (Roddy McDowall!) who is not afraid to cut metallic growths out of Billy's chest. He is laserblasted before the malpractice suit comes rolling in. One of the stranger characters, with deference to the many other strange characters, is The Colonel (Keenan Wynn) who spends most of the film in Operation Alzheimer's. And rounding out the bunch are the intergalactic police who also happen to be naked Stop-Motion Aliens! Host Segments  Prologue:  Tom and Crow have tied up Mike and jammed an oily rag into his mouth all for the sake of an elaborate Beyond Thunderdome joke. Tom begins, "Boy, I still think we really screwed up on that whole Thunderdome fiasco." To which Crow replies with wit, "Oh c'mon, can't we just get beyond Thunderdome?" Thank you.  Segment 1:  Dr. Forrester informs the gang on the SOL that he's disconnecting the umbilicus. Despite their alarm and with no consideration to their interjections, he does it. He then informs Mike and the 'Bots that he'll be moving back in with his mother who is packing up his things as they speak. Lastly, Dr. Forrester nonchalantly mentions that their orbit will decay in about two hours—just enough time for one last movie.  Segment 2:  Crow is chased by the Monad satellite who threatens to destroy him for being imperfect. Tom and Mike invite Monad to a little pizza party on Thursday. After Monad accepts, Mike quickly corrects Monad and tells him that the party is actually on Friday. Mike tells Monad that since he did not know the party was on Friday that he is imperfect and must destroy himself. An all-out argument ensues between Monad and Mike and the 'Bots. Monad threatens to instead destroy all of them. Mike ejects Monad from the SOL.  Segment 3:  The SOL rocks violently as it hits a field of star babies, one of which is in bad need of a diaper change. Mike sends Tom and Crow out with a giant diaper and then continues to feverishly instruct the 'Bots in the fine art of diaper changing all the while chain smoking and drinking copious amounts of coffee. Somehow the 'Bots still manage to succeed.  Segment 4:  Crow and Tom are admiring the beauty of a...black hole! A panicking Gypsy informs the 'Bots that the SOL is plummeting toward the singularity. Mike, as Captain Janeway, takes command of the SOL. After a short and bewildering speech, Captain Janeway breaks into song.  Segment 5:  Mike and Tom admire the edge of the universe. Crow, with sandwich in hand, explains that he's suddenly become aware that he can leave his corporeal body and become pure energy. After a bit of intense concentration, he does it. Tom follows his lead, as does Mike, Gypsy, and finally even Cambot. They all float away. Meanwhile, Dr. Forrester, sitting all alone at a table, is slowly eating a meal. After knocking over his wine glass, he see himself as an old man laying in bed. As he rises from his slumber, he points to a giant VHS tape at the foot of his bed labeled "The Worst Movie Ever Made." The culmination of his life's work completed, he transforms into a floating star baby. Mrs. Forrester lovingly takes hold of him and says, "Another chance to do it right. Ah, isn't it wonderful, baby?" The Dr. Forrester baby replies, "Oh, poopie."  Stinger:  Hippie in the van that picks up hitchhiking Billy says, "Faaaar Out!" Reflections A pathetic androgynous blonde kid from the California desert finds a ray-gun left by fat-assed aliens in the sagebrush, is harassed by strangely southern, dope-smoking cops, develops a large hole in his chest, kills Roddy McDowall, and eventually dies himself. Meanwhile, nothing happens. The aliens are the best thing in the film: they're cute. Eddie Deezen rounds out the cast as the hurtful geek.
