A long time ago, I saw this trailer on a couple of blogs..
Then today I stumbled upon the completed project! The film is a take off of the exploitation films of the 70s & plays as smooth as it looks. Great little project that really pays homage to everything great in both genres..
In the words of its creator - BLACK STAR WARRIOR In it's entirety. A 30th anniversary tribute to "The Empire Strikes Back". Created for under $4,000, this not-for-profit fan film was made to celebrate 30 years of the best Star Wars film ever made. Many thanks to everyone who volunteered to create this labor of love, especially the men and women of the 501st Legion, Cloud City Garrison.
