Holy cow, this looks amazing! And by amazing, I mean BAD.

Sorry... Small | Large


Originally known as Colpi Di Luce, aka Light Blast in English speaking countries, this movie stars Erik Estrada only two years after the long running TV show C.H.I.P.S. The poster for this movie hung in the video shop that we frequented when I was but a wee lad. Today marks the first time I've seen the trailer. Wow. Just wow.

Full movie is here!

I saw this (on YouTube) a couple of years ago. It's quite fun.

The sci-fi elements are really just window dressing but it's a fun cop romp with the inevitable (although well-staged) post "Bullitt" undulating car chase.
The best thing about the movie is definitely Enio Girolami's turn as the Russian nutcase who's behind the whole plot.

Wow! Somebody's translation software needs an update. :D

Blackmail laser for the city of San Francisco. California. Some criminals are threatening to reduce it to a heap of glowing embers unless they are given a huge sum. The authorities did not give up and investigations are handled by Ron, a skilled inspector with a reputation for hard (like the 'Dirty Harry' cop interpreted to asbestos years ago by Clint Eastwood)

Ermagawd, that Wiki entry is the best! It should be saved for future generations of bad movie lovers.  Thumbup

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
