From IMDB: “8 stuntmen were seriously injured during the filming of this movie due to lack of the implementation of safety regulations”
Only 8?
This thick slab of 80’s cheese includes a “Sam, they made the pants too long!” call-back to MST3K 814 – Riding With Death. I wonder, does that count as pandering? Whatever the case it’s all just slightly unwholesome, rather pointless good fun, and to quote The Hitchhiker’s Guide: “Mostly harmless”.
From Wikipedia.
“Colpi di luce (internationally released as Light Blast) is a 1985 Italian science fiction-action film directed by Enzo G. Castellari. In this film, Erik Estrada co-stars with his partner of the time, Peggy Rowe, whom he would soon marry in Rome.”
I was just gonna say, is this “Danger!! Death Ray!”‘s long-lost cousin? I got that vibe just from the image & title…
It’s a bit more “Death Ray 2000”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BI5yywh2Gqs
I am thinking that movie roles for Erik Estrada kinda fizzled after he blew his right nostril off with that pistol.
Co-writer/director Enzo Castellari also co-wrote and directed Escape 2000, in which he also appeared as a radio operator. Co-writer Tito Carpi also co-wrote Escape 2000. Ennio Girolami (Dr. Yuri Soboda) was President Henry Clark in Escape 2000. Massimo Vanni (Policeman in Warehouse, also a stuntman) was Big Little Man in Escape 2000. Composer Muarizio De Angelis also composer for Killer Fish. Editor Gianfranco Amicucci was also editor for Escape 2000. Assistant director Giuseppe Giglietti was also assistant director for Escape 2000. Stuntman Ottaviano Dell’Acqua also did stunts in Starcrash and portrayed a security guard in Escape 2000. Dialogue coach Paul Costello portrayed a reporter in Escape 2000 and was a dialogue coach for Killer Fish.
Still hoping they’ll get around to “Thrashin’,” the eightiest eighties movie from the eighties ever:

Looks like it’s a BIT more complex than that:

That sounds amazing! I would love the chance to cruise the ’80s on a skateboard right now.
Given their taste for riffing the same movie several times in a row, they’ll probably get into it fresh off of Rad.
I have no idea what you’re talking about and I’m fine with that.
