This week on #MONSTERDON -- the weekly monster movie watch party -- we have LASERBLAST (1977).
Over the years many have asked the question, "What if you took a depressing teen movie and gave the loser hero a laser cannon? Wouldn't that be awesome?"
Laserblast definitively answers that question; No. It would still suck.
Join us at 9pm Eastern this Sunday for a *remarkably* bad film. It's on Tubi or over here on Archive.org: https://archive.org/details/laserblast_202503

I thought of this movie just the other day as a Transport For NSW 490 Bus sneaked up behind me and unexpectedly shot a blast of air from its pneumatics system. If you know, you know.

Here's @Deadline with all the details.
