aka Teenage Alien Avengers
How bad is it? 7
How unintentionally bad is it? 8
How enjoyably bad is it? 7
This essentially a remake of "Laserblast" with some "Power Rangers" thrown in, directed by David DeCoteau and with some involvement by Charles Band. Unfortunately, this seems to have been aimed at a young audience, but targeted to adults. There's a slow chase scene involving a station wagon and an old Toyota, a huge explosion for little reason (pretty cool, actually, in the Farm Film Report "it blowed up real good" standard), a bad guy named Flash Gunderson, some terrible dialogue ("Howz about a knuckle sandwich from fist city?") and alien uniforms that are obviously made from sporting equipment. The plot has some high school geeks doing a sort of detention discovering alien technology. They use this technology to torment the jocks who had tormented them. Then they have a moment of personal growth as they realize they didn't need all the alien stuff to solve their self-worth issues. Then the aliens come back for their stuff and trouble ensues.
