BAD LINKS:  All LINKs to Megaupload are now BAD because the United States government has shut down Megaupload for copyright violations.  SEE http://mediadecoder.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/01/19/indictment-charges-7-people-tied-to-megaupload/ NOTICE THIS DID NOT REQUIRE A NEW LAW which would have empowered PRIVATE COMPANIES to do this.  I will work at removing and replacing these links over the next few months after I complete a major reorganization I am currently doing at this website, which including removing all links to Professional Star Trek from this website, to a separate site.  NOTE MOST much links are generally links to reviews and to CBS.  I do not host or copy ANY films at this website.

January 15, 2011. Red Star Trek.  Spooftackular No. 5* Maxsmodels asks, "What would Star Trek have been like if it had been made in the old USSR?"  He has an idea: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HC5zMLHLQyM&feature=related.(2:58)  But why guess?  The USSR did make it's own version of Star Trek, and they called it Cosmos Patrol!  see  http://www.stim.com/Stim-x/0996September/Automedia/soviet.html .

January 8, 2012   Star Wreak (American)  Spooftackular No. 4*  See http://startrekreviewed.blogspot.com/2009/06/47.html .

Newly found, not new.   Parody by adult fans.  Two films.  No standard costumes, low level special effects, green screens.  Some might find it funny, even though I did not.  There are people who actually watch Saturday Night Live, and it's better than most of their skits.  It combines bathroom jokes, ridicule for tough guy movies where the tough guy shoots everyone, and makes fun of Star Trek conventions, particularly ones that are arrogant.  The second film is a take-off on Arena.

Star Wreak (American, not the Finnish Film).  Live action parody.  Adult fans.  No costumes.  Green screens.

*"Spooftackular" refers to comedies, parodies and commercials which are recently found but not recently made.  Therefore, they are headlined during a period in which there have been no new releases for at least a few days, and no more new ones are expected for at least a few more days.
