In this cheesy teen science fiction movie a pair of teenagers find a glowing orb in an abandoned military junkyard. The orb sucks up electricity worse than an early 80s boombox. Once it builds up enough power it starts melting reality, mixing past, present, future, and imagination. Now it's up to a couple teenagers to save the world from the thing they have released on it.
The most memorable thing from this movie is the blown '68 GTO, and I'm not even a car buff! I enjoyed this movie at the time, but looking back I don't recall it being anything special. There were much better movies from the same time of the same style (like Weird Science, Real Genius, or even Teen Wolf). Worth a watch if you are really into these types of movies. If not you should probably avoid it.
