STAR TREK VS. BATMAN

STAR TREK VS. BATMAN - POW! ZIP! BOP! ZAP! Fans of retro TV shows Batman, and Star Trek listen up, there is a lost episode of both Star Trek and Batman out there, and this is it! Coming as close as you can to the real thing, this film, or fan episode(s), by the good folks of Rasco Motion Pictures, and Director Christopher Allen, includes all of the goofy things that made both shows so enjoyable, and makes for one Hell of a Fan Film..Designed to look just like episodes of both series, the chapters open and close with slightly modified opening credits from the actual shows, including musical scores, and even a guy who does the infamous Batman narraration throughtout the episodes. In the film Captain Kirk (played by Joshua Ramsey) and the crew of The Enterprise suddenly find themselves stuck in a mysterious magnetic storm that brings them back to the year 1967, and back on Earth. Beaming down to Earth, both Kirk, and Spock (played by Leo Barczewski), look for answers to their current dilema. Finding themselves in a small town Spock and Kirk are drawn to a strange cloud of fumes eminating from an old warehouse. Unfortunately, the fumes are a potent form of Nitrous Oxide, knocking both of them unconscious. Upon awakening, Kirk and Spock find themselves tied up in a strange room adorned with menacing circus style props. Yep, you guessed it, it is the work of The Clown Prince Of Crime, The Joker. The Joker (played by Gavin Rulon) is partnered with Catwoman (played by Victoria Floro, who bears a striking resemblance to Julie Newmar) and their plans are nothing short of sinister. The Joker plans on erasing the minds of Kirk and Spock with a mind control device that will transfer their knowledge of The Eneterprises controls, and crew, to himself, and rendering Kirk and Spock mindless zombies under his command. With The Enterprise at his disposal Joker plans to ravage the planet. Unknown to the devious duo, spotting a strange alien aircraft above Gotham, Batman (played by Scott Gayno), and Robin (played by Daniel Baughton) scramble to the location only to find themselves under attack by The Jokers minions, and the freshly brainwashed Kirk and Spock. Following the same formula, the remaining episodes are camp fueled, action packed slices of pop culture Heaven. Watching these incredibly faithful adaptations of both series, i could swear i was watching the real thing. Sure, not all of the actors and actresses are dead wringers of their TV counterparts, but incredible costume work, sets, and even a actual Batmobile, leave you thinking this could have actually happened.. Special kudos go out to the writing team for an incredibly witty storyline, Scott Gayno (Batman), and Daniel Baughton (Robin), for truly capturing West and Ward's unique chemistry. And let's not forget Gavin Boughton (The Joker), and the work of Joshua Ramsey (Kirk), and Leo Barczewski (Spock) for their solid acting, and authentic portrayls. These episodes are incredibly impressive pieces of work that practically cross the line bewtween the work of fans, and the real deal. Fanboy approved!
