Sci - fi movies usually showcase this relationship using advanced starship , robots , and of row , weapons .
We ’ve seen some amazing weapons in the genre , most notably lightsabers fromStar war , phasers fromStar Trek , and the M41A Pulse Rifle fromAliens . Of naturally , we ’ve seen some evenly bizarre weapons over the years that follow more along the lines ofDude , Where ’s My Car ’s Continuum Transfunctioner ; very mysterious and powerful machine whose secret ( and absurdity ) are only exceeded by their power . Today we ’re going to take a look at some of the most bizarre science - fable weapon ever seen on the expectant screen .
ZORG Z-F1
It ’s important to keep in nous that " eccentric " does n’t necessarily entail " speculative , " as no one could say thatThe Fifth Element ’s Zorg Z - F1 Pod Weapon System is n’t implausibly expert at what it does … which is everything . The multi - purpose weapon system is the " All - Dressed " of guns , with multiple firing options .
We ’ve seen weapons like this in other sci - fi films , with Judge Dredd ’s Lawmaker showcasing the nerveless version of a multi - purpose weapon . On the flip side , Beverly Hills Cop III ’s Annihilator 2000 derail the shark by let in a CD player and microwave . The Z - F1 is an exercise in inordinateness and is bizarre in shape , but it work very well . Just do n’t push the picayune red-faced button on the bottom of the gun .
“HAND” GRENADE
Death Race 2000was aRoger Cormanfeature that asterisk David Carradine , Sylvester Stallone , and Simone Griffeth , set in a post - apocalyptic Earth hunger brute amusement .

L.O.O.K.E.R. GUN
Michael Crichton’sLookerwas an attempt at holding a mirror up to society ’s fixation with sensitive and beauty , while also presenting a whodunit about a serial of murders of recent plastic OR patients . Lookerwas one of the first moving picture to expend computer - generated images to make a realistic human character .
The film also sport a in truth odd weapon of choice for the killer , which was a gun that emitted pulses of spark to hypnotize / blind its victim / give the bearer the illusion of invisibleness . The grease-gun was named the Light Ocular - orient Kinetic Emotive Responses , or L.O.O.K.E.R Gun , which think its vague purpose may be petty to give the acronym study with the title of the photographic film .
NOISY CRICKET
1997’sMen in Blackfirst introduce the dangerous Noisy Cricket , which was capable of blast a hole through a rampart . However , what is truly bizarre about the weapon system is not it ’s level of force , but the tiny building block equipped to deliver such a sinewy shot .
Not only is the actual weapon system incredibly petite , but it also produces a huge recoil that shootsWill Smith ’s Agent J flying back with every shot , which is play to enceinte comedic result in the moving-picture show . While it makes gumption that this arm could have been produce for an exotic hand that would be worthy for provoke it , it seems foreign that the MiB would outfit their agents with such an curious artillery .
DALEK PLUNGER
Yes , we know that it ’s technically called a Manipulator Arm , but the earlier we can all have that it ’s a toilet diver , the better off we ’ll be . Dr. Who and theDalekswas a 1965 feature article film starring Peter Cushing that was based on the secondDoctor Whoserial , The Daleks . The film was n’t canonically tied to the TV series , but the design of the popular Daleks was for the most part the same .
The Daleks are genetically modify nuclear - mutate cyborg aliens , with two ports for weapon attachments and a desire to eradicate . While the Gunstick on one port can be a very virulent weapon , the Manipulator Arm / Dalek Plunger is a multi - purpose limb for gripping , crowd , turning , suffocating , crushing header , and , of form , plunging .
GRISTLE GUN
David Cronenberg ’s concluding produced screenplay was the hard - to - explain and even - harder - to - understandeXistenZ , which asterisk Jude Law and Jennifer Jason Leigh . They play biotechnological virtual realism game programmers on the run from multiple mathematical group with various claims on the newest VR game - eXistenz .
In one peculiarly unsettling scenery define within the virtual reality domain , Jude Law ’s character constructs a throttle made out of the pearl of a repast he had just finished eat , assembling the Gristle Gun . The unsettling musical composition of hardware is not only made from bones , but it also can human teeth as bullets .
HEAD BOMB
We ’ve taken a feel at a number of advanced or disturbing firearms so far , and 1987’sTotal Recallfeatured a muckle of those . However , the film ’s intimate - yet - deadly gun for hire were not nearly bizarre enough for the satellite of Mars , so along with the audience ’s first actual introduction to the planet , the " Head Bomb " would also make its first unmatched appearance .
Initially reveal as a highly - advanced automatonlike mask worn by Arnold Schwarzenegger ’s fictional character to get past security measures , the malfunctioning mask soon reveals its lower-ranking purpose . The machinelike mask would deliver a net taunting before exploding and creating a beguilement . This means Arnold ’s character was wearing a misfunction explosive on his headspring for the entire trip to Mars .
DE-EVOLUTION GUN
It ’s hard to differentiate one bizarre selection from another when it come to theSuper Mario Bros.movie adaptation , which is widely consent as one of the oddest video plot adaptations we ’ve ever seen . The film saw King Koopa , played by Dennis Hopper , attempting to merge his Dino - reality with the Mario Bros. world .
One of the weapons in his arsenal is a De - Evolution Gun , which is fairly aptly named . It was designed as a portable version of King Koopa ’s Devo Chamber that creates his reptilian Goomba confederate . The De - Vo Gun is shown devolving a human into a monkey , but we ’re not solely trusted how this unusual weapon apply to his design for existence domination .
GLAIVE
WhileKrullcould just as easy be consider a fantasy story , it is set on the planet Krull and features a vast teleporting spaceship known as the Black Fortress , plant it unwaveringly in the realm of scientific discipline fiction . The 1983 pic was a critical and financial failure , though it has developed a cult follow over the years .
Krullfeatured an interesting use of the extra effects technology of the time , and also focused on a very bizarre arm that seems ill - think out in its construction . The Glaive is a five - direct boomerang - like weapon that can hover and fly , because magic . However , as every single grabbable arm of the artillery has a blade on it , it ’s all variety of impractical .
POINT OF VIEW GUN
well one of the strange weapons seen across any music genre is the Point of View Gun take in in 2005’sHitchhiker ’s Guide to the Galaxy , which was an adaptation of Douglas Adams ' iconic sci - fi book and radio serial of the same name . The book view the last surviving humanity forced to thumb across the galaxy after the destruction of Earth , which puts them in many dangerous and odd situations .
