I'd possibly give this movie an "8" rating, but only because I remember watching it as a very young kid in the early 80's and it stayed with me.
Up until ten minutes ago, all I could remember about this movie was that there was something about a necklace burning into a guys chest and something about a laser gun. Periodically through the years -when I thought about it, which was rare- I'd try searching for things that might lead me to find this movie I could vaguely half-remember (like trying to remember a dream whilst on your lunch break), but I never found anything. About ten minutes ago, I did a search for "necklace burned into chest" and eventually found my way to "Laserblast".
So, while I haven't seen the movie in over 30 years, and I don't really remember anything about it, i DO remember it. The only other movies that I remember watching in the early 80's were:
Raiders of the lost ark,
Return of the jedi,
ET
Ghostbusters and
Nightmare on Elm St.
So this movie will always be in the company of the aforementioned movies in my mind, and no matter how bad it actually turns out to be when I finally find a copy of it, it will always hold a special place in my memories :)
