Poor Bastards of Cinema: Light Blast (Part 3)

 One final Poor Bastard from Light Blast.
I'm getting my money's worth out of that $7.99, RiffTrax!

Later in the Film, they set up a money drop to pay off the bad guys (but really trap them).

It gets grabbed and a chase ensues.

Also improbable explosions.

It eventually ends when the men in the car crash into some boxes by the docks.

They get out of their car to run, which is surely a great plan!
All of the shooting and explosions gets the attention of this random Dock Worker.

The bad guy proceeds to run past him, but turns...
...and shoots the guy.

Besides being terrible as a random murder, it's also a terrible idea because it gives Estrada a clear shot to take him down.
The best part- these weren't even the bad guys!  These were just different guys who went 'let's take this money from the Police!' and got many people killed.

Random person dies at the hands of the bad guy- bad.
Random person dies at the hands of Red Herrings that served no purpose- very bad!

The moral- be as far as you can from a police shoot-out.  Did I need to tell you that?!?

Next time, a Cab Driver dares to...take notes.  Gotta die, son!  See you then...
