Curiosidades

Deadly Weapon is a 1989 American science fiction film directed by Michael Miner and starring Rodney Eastman. It was released direct-to-video.

Production

Michael Miner wrote the film as an "anti-weapons" film and wrote the film with specific intent on reaching a younger audience.

RoboCop creator Michael Miner was invited by Charles Band to create a sequel to the 1978 film Laserblast, which was also produced by Band, in August 1986. Miner at this time worked as second unit director on RoboCop set. Although planned as a sequel to Laserblast, while writing the script - and partially due to financial constraints-, Band and Miner decided to make an original film, based on the central idea. Adapted from a story by George Lafia.

Deadly Weapon was filmed from May through June 1987 in and around Southern California. According to Miner, he consulted with a physicist to get their opinion on whether the ray gun in the film looked plausible. Due to the film's low budget Miner made the film more character focused rather than effects focused comparing the final film to a mixture of Badlands by way of WarGames.
