I have lost count of how many times I've watched this. Astron-6 are such a creative force, a very cool powerhouse of fun and ideas. Wish them all the best.
Oh and; "Simple minded fools! Who will save you now?"
this truly is the best thing ever. i love your sense of humor. my buddy introduced me to your videos, and they are amazing. i wonder what you could pull off with a large budget...
Einstein didn't make the atomic bomb! Though it was his theory of relativity that made it possible, and it haunted him to the end of his days. Though lazer ghost Einstein is f***ing amazing
Only 51 Comments and 6,798 views? That is a crime. I need to get the word out. This is the best thing I have seen on youtube in...EVER! Some ghosts just won't stay dead.
"You see, you didn't need these green lasers to defeat Einstein's ghost. You had everything you needed right here (gestures to his heart) in these green lazers."
If you guys ever work on anything else please please please email me!!
booo! i wanted this to be a feature length. it's still pretty great, though. is this a pilot for a movie that you have future plans for or is this where the lazer train ends?
Let's be honest: a feature length version of this would suck. Everything fun and awesome about the concept is crammed into these 9 1/2 minutes, and the rest would just be people entering/exiting buildings and explaining various situations. The whole point is to show how feature length high-concept movies suck and can be condensed into a more acceptable length.
I'm not sure how to interpret the comment that "feature length high-concept movies suck and could be condensed." Since this mini-movie references Ghostbusters, I'd guess Ghostbusters would be considered part of the "feature length high-concept" group? Surely people don't think Ghostbusters sucks, do they?
this is seriously brilliant! even the small details like how laser is spelt two different ways in the title are hilarious. and the effects are so of that time. it reminds me of a lot of movies, of course, but most of all re-animator.
Enough! I'm sick of hearing how first Lazer Ghost is so much better. Obviously Lazer Ghost 1 is best of the series. Part two is good in a very satisfactory way.
Due to the enormous level of fan disapproval, the next Lazer Ghosts film will be a direct sequel to the original, and have no relation to the second movie, hopefully achieving the same level of success as Highlander 3.
you're a fucking moron. you MAY be thinking of one of the many Lazer Ghosts spinoff/ripoffs, but there was no fucking LAZER GHOSTS 3 in 93/4. This is similar to Don Coscarelli returning to the Phantasm series, etc.
jesus christ you are FUCKING IDIOTS!!! YOU ARE ALL FUCKING IDIOTS! I WASN'T TALKING ABOUT DON COSCARELLI MAKING LG, I WAS REFERRING TO FUCKING PHANTASM!
I just said Kostanski did MAKE Phantasm, I didn't say Kostanski didn't WORK ON Phantasm or the Phantasm Redux. Read before you type you piece of shit.
I was referring to the upcoming re-release of LG3, which (seeing as how it was also poorly received upon its initial release) will be re-edited to remove any references to the rules and characters established in LG2. Hopefully it will achieve the same level of success as the renegade version of Highlander 2.
How long did this take to shoot? The budget? You pull in lots of favors? The production values are amazing, though I wouldnt be surprised if that was due to creative thinking. You did all the prosthetics yourself, right? How'd you manage directing the thing too? I did a zombie short and all its makeup fx, it took FOREVER to get shooting, applying things to batches of people THEN organizing the shoot. I'd love to read a little story detailing the "making-of" this thing. Great job all around.
