Cactuar Joe<p>This week on <a href="https://retro.pizza/tags/MONSTERDON" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MONSTERDON</span></a> -- the weekly monster movie watch party -- we have LASERBLAST (1977).</p><p>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?"</p><p>Laserblast definitively answers that question; No. It would still suck.</p><p>Join us at 9pm Eastern this Sunday for a *remarkably* bad film.

cs<p>I just watched the <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>monsterdon</span></a> preview for next weekend. You peoples are a glutton for punishment. I will be bowing out on this one again.</p>
Angela Korra'ti<p>Now, if you want to make a case that watching this movie is going to be painful without Mike and the bots pitching in... fair point, well argued. I hear you!</p><p>But if you go that route, you might wanna mute the host segments.</p><p>Don't say you weren't warned. ;)</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.murkworks.net/tags/Monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Monsterdon</span></a></p>
Angela Korra'ti<p>It was, in fact, the FINAL episode of Season 7, the last one with Dr. Forrester, and the last one on Comedy Central. It jumped to the Sci-Fi channel after that, but it took several months before the first episode of season 8 aired there.</p><p>In other words: this was the episode that killed MST3K on Comedy Central.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.murkworks.net/tags/Monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Monsterdon</span></a></p>
forestine<p>Hope you're all ready for Laserblast. The movie where a guy has a terrible allergic reaction to a necklace but refuses to remove it. it's basically a movie about a toxic dude who has an open sore <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/Monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Monsterdon</span></a></p>
Angela Korra'ti<p>Oof. So, yeah. Laserblast.</p><p>Everybody who's going "Oh hey it got MST'ed..." Y'all, it was season 7 Mike. That was the _not good_ era of Mike. So you might not wanna rely on that for your Monsterdon viewing this Sunday, JUST SAYING.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.murkworks.net/tags/Monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Monsterdon</span></a></p>
wohali<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://timeloop.cafe/@Taweret" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>Taweret</span></a></span> here we goooooo</p><p>for <a href="https://timeloop.cafe/tags/monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>monsterdon</span></a> people who never watched the MST3K riff of this:</p><blockquote><p>Mary Jo Pehl, an actress and writer with [Mystery Science Theatre 3000], felt that Laserblast was a particularly bad film: "The lead guy, Kim Somebody, is another sterling example of how filmmaking is not a meritocracy. The fact that this film was even made proves that 'anybody can do it.' You can find this either inspiring or depressing."</p><p>During the riffing of the film, the robot character Crow T. Robot claims the film "was run through a highly technical process called 'tension extraction'", and the other robot Tom Servo calls it so dull, "There's a point where it stops being a movie".</p></blockquote><p>Looking forward to this one!!!</p>
