Blast Vegas is a 2013 American supernatural disaster television film directed by Jack Perez and written by Tom Teves and Joe D'Ambrosia, from a story by Meter Shwarzstein. The film stars Frankie Muniz, Barry Bostwick, and Maggie Castle, and is about an Egyptian sandstorm curse that destroys Las Vegas, Nevada. It first aired on the Syfy channel on July 18, 2013.[1][2]
Frat brothers head to Las Vegas for spring break. When one of them steals an ancient Egyptian sword on display in a casino, they unwittingly release a curse that invokes a disastrous sandstorm in Las Vegas. This city is slowly being destroyed while Nelson (Frankie Muniz) and his girlfriend Olive (Maggie Castle), along with Sal (Barry Bostwick) race to remove the curse and calm the storm.
The film was written by Tom Teves and Joe D'Ambrosia and directed by Jack Perez. The initial idea of the film originated in summer 2007, when The Asylum announced that the film would be released by February 14, 2012 as Destruction: Las Vegas. In summer 2010, it didn't work due to Grimm's Snow White being produced for that time. By fall 2010, the producers announced a tentative spring 2013 airdate on TNT. Filming began around Spring 2012. Base FX and R-Team provided visual effects and CGI animation for the film. In all 2012, Syfy acquired the rights to air the film by July 18, 2013.
