Title: Star Wreck: In the Pirkinning
Post by: GameDaddy on November 19, 2008, 09:31:04 PM
So I'm over at the Zhodani Base, trying to glean a few good ideas for a new Traveller game and come across this little gem, Star Wreck: In the Pirkinning.

Evidently, It Star Trek meets Babylon-Five meets (Really!) uhhh... each other. It's all in Finnish with English subtitles, still there's some great special effects, real twisty humor, a good soundtrack, and well... subtitles.

Now they are working on a new film, Iron Sky.... This is a story about when the Space Nazis attack from the Moon in 2018... I kid you not... The preview trailer for this is available here:

I downloaded that movie legally and laughed quite a bit.

The real star of the show is the computer graphics, which were done on Linux.

I love Linux.  And I love cheesy movies that use Linux to good effect.

I think the entire budget for the film was 10 Euros in donations.
