YMMV / Zapped! (1982)

Go To

  • Awesome Music: "Got to Believe in Magic" by David Pomeranz, which plays during Barney and Bernadette's Falling-in-Love Montage.
  • Best Known for the Fanservice: "That's the movie where Heather Thomas's shirt pops open and all the girls at the prom have their dresses blown off, right?"
  • Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: After Barney is grounded and sent to his room, there's a sequence where Barney uses his powers to fly a model spaceship (which looks like someone tried to stick some warp nacelles on the Millenium Falcon) around the room. Barney has an Imagine Spot where Star Trek Expys on board the ship discuss the "giant sheepdog" (Barney's normal-sized pet) about to bite into the ship.
  • Cult Classic: The film has a long-running online fan club, most recently on Facebook. Also, the premise of the film has inspired plenty of Wish-Fulfillment Rule 34 fiction.
  • Retroactive Recognition: One of the people who plays the roulette wheel is Eddie Deezen (Mandark).
  • Signature Scene: The prom, particularly when almost everyone's clothes start flying off.
  • Values Dissonance: Hopefully, women being stripped naked without their consent would no longer be considered harmlessly amusing.
