I think they should have added another explosion...
#Monsterdon

tragic music.

too bad we wanted them to be blown up. #monsterdon

Actually a nice detail, ejection port cover was closed, he cocked the piece, and it opened.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

@amyfou Sure he looks goofy, but the US military would like to have a word with the lad #monsterdon

note where we were. In the desert.

now, suddenly, we're on the highway, where there's greenery and stuff.

amazing, how that happens.

blasting gives you energy, and prevents dehydration even when your mouth is hanging open? #monsterdon

also, that's an awfully long song they're listening to in the 50s car?

The director instructed the actor playing Billy to act like an excited t-rex when he's carrying the laser.

#Monsterdon #Laserblast

thank you

#Monsterdon

noooooo the classic car RIP

#monsterdon #laserblast

@yatsu I know, Billy is awesome everyone stop picking on him.

#Monsterdon

I think my brain has seized up. #Monsterdon #Laserblast

Okay so "die in a fire" isn't always just a thing we say

#Monsterdon
#Laserblast

It's kinda hard to take the lasergun possession seriously when it just makes you flail around like a bad zombie

#Monsterdon

The laser blaster destroyed Billy's mind so much, he started using it as a club to cut grass? Who built this thing?

#Monsterdon #Laserblast

#monsterdon

Laserblunkst.

#monsterdon

I told you, he hates cars! #monsterdon

#Monsterdon The foley guy has a lot of neat ideas that won’t cost very much!

I'm totally gonna replace the steering wheel in my Subaru with one of those with the holes in the middle.

#Monsterdon
#Laserblast

Billy is literally just the dude who did too much acid at the party last night. This is all his trip.

#monsterdon

So the necklace activates the laser, but also causes spastic failing. Seems like that might be bad for targeting. #monsterdon #laserblast

Meanwhile, two men go somewhere. #monsterdon

Is that the same plane we saw at the beginning of the movie?

#monsterdon #laserblast

back to the red car couple. Gee, kill them Billy, please
#monsterdon

what is Bill's motivation for laserblasting his small town to pieces?

#Monsterdon #Laserblast

You've just been... *puts on sunglasses" Laserblasted.
#Monsterdon

Well, that was sooner than expected.

#Monsterdon

zombie billy isn't th monster here it's the movie itself that's the monster

#monsterdon

"Next on KCUF 99, it's all synthesizer, all the time!"

#Monsterdon

i mean, i'm not actually Team Billy, but he does seem to be against SA, he seems comfy with makeup on masc people, and he is using his newfound power to take down authority figures and bullies, sooo... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #monsterdon

when your cousin owns a small plane and a machine gun and wants to be in a movie #Monsterdon

If you came into the movie expecting only one laserblast behold your cup doth runneth over. #monsterdon

Someone was high AF when they green lit this. #monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie yeah, I know, but I can't get those few seconds out of my head #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👦 🔦 🚀 💥👽 🔦 🚀 💥👾 😱

The airplane mid-shots are so clearly shot on a different day than the shots of weirdo alien laserblaster Billy swinging this laserblaster on the hill

Won't be long now!

Famous last(ish) words.

#monsterdon

After DOGE, Secret Special Anti-Alien Technology Forces have to use Piper Cubs from the 60s.

#monsterdon

Awfully fast insurance payout on the old car, but they had to get them into a new vehicle _somehow_.

#monsterdon

that's... that's not how you scythe grass.

#monsterdon #laserblast

Now he's literally beating his chest in defiance of Emergency Alert One Squad. <sob> #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Seems on-brand. Cops strafe shooting suspects from the air with fully automatic rifles. Poop!Billy seems to be having a sexual response to being shot from the air. That’s fine. He eventually had one. Good for him.

"ok then the plane blows up"
"oh ok then the plane disappears in a photographic effect"

#monsterdon

20 laser blasts
2 cars
1 gas station
1 pinball table
1 C172

and the movie's over, right? yay?

#monsterdon

this is just so bad

#monsterdon

c'mon billy, stop dancing and shoot the airplane
#monsterdon

It's weird that we have come across the Eddie Deezen alien invasion cinematic universe so close together isn't it? Like what are the odds?
#Monsterdon #Laserblast

So, the "sniper" sent to take out Billy is cheering about how he just shot someone?

#Monsterdon #Laserblast

Called it.

#Monsterdon

Who am I supposed to be rooting for in this airplane scene? #monsterdon

no footage of plane explosion 😔
#monsterdon

RED 5 NOOOOOOOOOOOO

#monsterdon #laserblast

When do the rapist pair get bbq'd?

#Monsterdon

Billy does a good chimpanzee Thunder Dance.

#Monsterdon #Laserblast

Oh snap, you made him open his shirt

Now you're in for it

#Monsterdon

I just realized, it's a movie filmed in the 70s and I haven't seen a single Mustang yet. Did I nod off?

#monsterdon

If it hadn't been blown-up and it had been kept out of the sun and the damp, today that pinball table would sell for more money than this movie made, in toto.

#monsterdon

How did he get so many jobs? #monsterdon

oh lord, the plane blew open his shirt again. just when we gotten him to close it. #monsterdon

Also, wha does the zombie makeup end at his chin?

#monsterdon

You fools! The natural enemy of the airplane pilot is the laser! #monsterdon #laserblast

Just how much *sweat* is in the laser blaster at this point? Billy's hand has to be *slick*.

#monsterdon

It's a Coleman Francis movie now with law enforcement in an aircraft shooting at people they just assume to be guilty #Monsterdon

Did I miss how these guys in the plane knew who and where they were looking? #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon "Hey boss, can we mount some guns to this plane?"

"Naw, just have bob hang out the windows with a rifle"

When the sniper turns the hat around, it's real. #monsterdon

This soundtrack could use more cowbell.

#Monsterdon #Laserblast

@ricci @amyfou I don't even know what the question is and I'm pretty sure I know the answer

#Monsterdon

@kshernandez :nope:

#monsterdon

Gonna turn my hat around backwards to keep the sun outta my eyes lol

#Monsterdon

I wonder who the last poor guy was who found the pendant and gun. #Monsterdon

oh wait it's an automatic 🥴
#monsterdon

@hollie People are using that word "love" but I think that what we were watching was something different #monsterdon

Not sure I'd want to be on that plane.

#Monsterdon

Froggy likes lightning and planes.

#Monsterdon #Laserblast1978

Best thing about this #Monsterdon are the stop motion Space Turtles

Second best thing is that gunner dude's moustache

it's the Emergency Alert One Task Force, in their airplane! #monsterdon

NOoooo! Not the pinball machine!
#monsterdon #laserblast

"I knew King Kong, sir - and you are no King Kong!"

#monsterdon #laserblast

You know that's a limited budget movie when they can't rent many extras to play the army
#monsterdon

I want the laser to blow up the two guys in their new car and let them call that lightning.

#Monsterdon

How expensive and difficult was it to shoot this car/airplane scene? And what's the point?

#monsterdon

@amyfou And again, the answer is "no"

I don't even know where you are in the movie, and I know the answer

#Monsterdon

wait wtf how he gonna shoot his ass from a plane like that

what olympic ass shooter this is mfer
#monsterdon

@Zerofactorial I meant the characters. :) #Monsterdon

"Anyone who runs is a Zorblaxian! Anyone who stands still is a well-disciplined Zorblaxian!"

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon today we hunt... the most dangerous game

like in Critters the joke was that Deezen was supposed to be annoying and then you get to enjoy him being killed by critters

here I think they actually expect you to think he's funny

#Monsterdon

Foolish airplane man, you brought a rifle to a laser fight

#Monsterdon

What's with the gratuitous shot of the 35mph on the speedometer?

Who made that choice?

#monsterdon

Is there any rhyme or reason to when this dude... turns? #monsterdon

also it may be in the running for Monsterdon's Ugliest Movie award. ahh the 70s #Monsterdon

I know it's the 70's but have you never seen an airplane before?

#Monsterdon

@bstacey

No backstory to build suspense! Could have taken 15 minutes to write, shoot and edit that scene!

#Monsterdon

Eddie Deezen: Plane Noticer #monsterdon

guess someone in the film crew really liked the red car huh

#monsterdon

I like how the car has a Standard Temperature and Pressure sticker on it.

#Monsterdon #Laserblast

@davesdogmaggie I'm reserving judgment on the stop-motion folks. Too bad they're too expensive to have longer scenes #monsterdon

oh look.

Lightning. #monsterdon

#monsterdon edeezen: "HEY LIGHTNING WE SHOULD NAME THIS NEW CAR SOMETHING LIKE LIGHTNING LIGHTNING GREASED LIGHTNING MAYBE"

#Monsterdon 👦 🔦 🚀 💥👽 🔦 🚀 💥👾 😱

but what is 'CRAGAR'?
