Pa-POW! Pa-POW! And the fantastic claymation stop motion alien jerks who leave a powerful weapon behind where Johnny the Bland can use it to blow up a Star Wars billboard from a hippy van.

Laserblast the final episode of season 7 the forgotten about season. The short season. TVs Frank is gone. Dr Forester is with his mother. And the SOL is doomed!!! Also claymation aliens.

I have no idea why I voted for this film. That gaping hole in Billy’s chest is just gross and uncalled for. But this film is like a damn road accident — I don’t want to look, but I can’t look away.

I never warmed to the Day the Earth Froze. But Laserblast is a film for kids like I was.

No Sampo here but there's Roddy McDowall, Keenan Wynn and a thorough examination of Leonard Maltin's movie guide.

'70s van, Eddie Deezen, the bad guy from Corvette Summer, what's not great about this movie!?

I mean, if it is good enough for Leonard Maltin, it is good enough for me.

Classic episode regardless of its history as the final DrF experiment. The riffing fires on all cylinders and the Leonard Maltin guide offers a fun running gag. Wonderful end of an era.

I love them both. But Mike Nelson in a Captain Janeway cosplay singing "Proud Mary?" I don't even know if the rich taste of sampo can top that.

This was a tough choice, even though this movie lacks a sampo. But there are other odd Russo/Finnish co-productions, and this flick did mark the end of the Comedy Central era.

SAMPO!
Reply"Here Comes The Circus" short is one of their best riffs. TDTEF is also a top tier riff episode.
ReplySAMPO!
ReplyIt's my girlfriend's favorite episode.
ReplyThis is near-peak Joel-era zaniness!
ReplyA look at alternative climate change.
ReplyIt's always hilarious, and the Circus Short at the front of the film nearly makes me pee myself every. damn. time.
ReplyI LOVE this one. I actually looked into the whole Sampo deal - very interesting, & makes the movie so much better.
ReplyWizzzzzzzzzards!
ReplySampo. 'Nough Said.
ReplyHands down, my favorite MST3K ever! Goofy movie, hysterical riffs, what more could a MSTie want!
ReplyBecause we need a sampo in our lives! The bizarre Russo Finnish misties are always a cultural fender bender of riffing fun!
ReplyI can't get enough of the costume and mythology type episodes. And you can toast to Sampo!
ReplyMy absolute favorite episode of all time.
ReplyI've seen Lazer last a lot
ReplySampo!
ReplyLake Wobegon
ReplySomehow I missed this one before...
ReplyBecause I'm sick of laserblast every year
ReplyWhat IS a Sampo?
ReplyMore enjoyable movie.
ReplyThis was my first ever episode. Someday, I hope to find out what a Sampo is.
ReplyANYTHING BUT LASERBLAST!
Reply"You were right! The boat is bringing Lemminkäinen!" Mmmmmmmmmm!
Replyask for it by name
ReplySAMPO!!!
Reply"Oh, cripes, I remember that day.."
ReplySimply Sampo (but this was a tough choice)
ReplyThis movie is a classic, how can I NOT vote for the film that contains THE SAMPO!!
ReplyBoth are favorites...but SAMPO will love on forever
ReplyWhat can I say, like Boggy Creek, it's another family favorite.
ReplySAMPO instead of potatoes?! Honey, I love you!
ReplyCan't beat the Sampo!
ReplyMmm frosty Lemminkainen
ReplySAMPO LIVES
Replyno more laserblast. thank you.
ReplyNot only it has Sampo my favorite short "Here comes the circus".
ReplyI’m bored with seeing Lazerblast every Turkey Day.
ReplyBecause I could really use a Sampo in the kitchen this Thanksgiving.
ReplyI need Sampo
ReplyRusso-Finnish cinema a gorgeous fever dream
ReplyUnderrated gem
ReplyWhere is the many-colored dome of the Sampo?
ReplyHe's a failure, la la la.
ReplyOne of my top 5. have to love anytime the crew takes on some fantasy movies
ReplySAMPO! Of course!
ReplyThe film itself is at least watchable and the riffs make it a great episode. I didn't particularly care for Laserblast except for the epic bit during the end credits
ReplyMy favorite ever. Haven't seen in ages.
ReplyWhere is it, huh? Where IS the Sampo?!?
ReplyLasblast. Too many questions. What is the point of Eddie Deezen? Why does Star Wars have to die? What’s with the hush hush? Why does he end up in Hill Valley and does he save the clock tower? Why?
ReplySampo!
ReplySAMPO!
ReplyDon’t you want to be Russo-Finnish? Sure, we all do.
ReplyMy biggest MST3K laugh ever was for "Oh no, they're doing it clown-style!"
ReplySAMPO!
ReplyI wanted some sampo
ReplyThe Russo-Finnish movies are just unabashedly crazy. Love 'em.
ReplyThis episode made me want SAMPO. At any price.
ReplyMy daughter said to, so I'm making up to her for voting for "Tormented."
ReplyHere comes the Devil!
