Alien Movie with Gun & Amulet || Horror creature

[ecronic]

Hey guys,

Am laughing my a** off after writing he subject for this post but I really couldn't understand how else to describe it lol 

The first one : Alien Movie with Gun & Amulet is about an alien that lands on earth and has a gun on it's left arm and an amulet around the neck.

Basically what I vaguely remember about the movie is that there is an agent of FBI or special forces that knows about it's landing and hunts it down in the beginning of the movie itself. The gun and amulet are then found by a teenager who can only fire the gun if he comes in contact with both the gun and amulet. As the movie progresses the basic thing is the Alien technology kind of bonds to the teenager's body and by the end of the movie its hard for him to seperate from it... hope you guys can help me out with this one...


The second movie : Horror creature is about this small creatures that look like mushrooms. The top is the same as a mushroom head but @ the bottom they have teeth. They basically stick to a person and start chewing in to their flesh and are hard to remove just like leeches. In order to remove them they either have to be cut off or burnt.

The most amazing part about this species is that when you cut them into half they may seem dead but they aren't. They can't attack so they are harmless but once you put them into some liquid( I believe it was water) they come alive again and are able to heal themselves and become whole again...

I hope someone can crack these open... I would love to watch these again since I was really young when I first watched them so remember just bits and pieces and would love to refresh the memory.

Thanks to all

The first one is Laserblast if my memory doesn't fail me.

I want to say the second movie is Without Warning, but they were more like discs.  They spun through the air and landed on people, sucking out their blood.  Very silly film from 1980.  Jack Palance, Martin Landau, Neville Brand and Larry Storch somehow wound up in this.

My first thoughts were also Laserblast and Without Warning, but I don't remember the "discs"
the alien throws, which are reminescent of the alien suckers in a Star Trek episode, being able
to heal themselves. As for the Laserblast one, there is another film which I think is italian that
has a very similar "guy with a gun in his arm" I've seen this theme in a couple of movies. It may help
if you remember whether there was these two very original looking "turtoise headed aliens" that came
to dispatch the out of control kid in the end. I'll see if i can remember the other film basically the
makeup looks like the one they used on Linda Blair in The Exorcist.

There is a review of "Laserblast" on the site which might help:

The description of the little alien chomper things does sound like "Without Warning."  Wasn't there a scene of them being examined in a laboratory?

[retrorussell]

God, it's been a handful of years since I've seen Without Warning.. but I do at least remember Jack Palance examining one of the critters in a mason jar with formaldehyde.  Don't recall if it was in a lab or not.

The other movie which reminded me of laserblast was "The Dark" (1976) but when I looked
a the previews i didnt see a gun in the monsters arm. As far as Without Warning, you can
catch it on youtube. Look up Without Warning, or the warning part 1.

Yeah, I'm thinking "Laserblast" one of the all time great bad movies. Was there a scene where the guy uses the laser to blast a billboard for "Star Wars?" I'm guessing someone had a sneaky feeling they're movie wasn't going to do as well. Did the aliens look a cross between E.T. and a dinosaur with a big butt?
