February 17, 2012.  Retail Star Trek, a newly released Silver Age spoof by the same folk who created the never completed Star Trek Roddenbury.  (Adult fans, live action, green screens, costumes, decent writing, much improved acting.)  This is Star Trek: First Contact in a world Ayn Rand would love!

February 12, 2012  Spooftackular No. 9*  Star Trek Spoof: (Golden Age, live action, adult fans, costumes, comedy/adventure)

 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8z76pOCcGQ  (5:27).  Posted by http://www.youtube.com/user/DanTheMan1701#p/u. The concept is small and narrow, which results in a better film viewing experience  than some spoofs which show more work.  I enjoyed it, although I can't say I found it significantly more goofy than some real TOS shows.  For more Short Star Trek comedies and parodies, go to the NEW location of those listing at Blog 208 .

February 5, 2012.   Spooftackular No. 8*  Clear Channel Video and Fox News produced this parody... commercial?  Not sure.  Star Trek 38:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65yZa7gROcY (9:57) Other Professional Parodies, Comedies and Commercials:  http://startrekreviewed.blogspot.com/2009/06/218.html

*"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.

A Review:   Fan Film Friday: Mariner: ‘Revelations & Anomalies’


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.

November 6, 2011.  Spooftackular No. 3. Star Trek: Trailer Trek. Live Action Parody of The Doomsday Machine.  It identifies itself as being in the 23rd century, which would make it Stone Age or Golden Age, but the uniforms mix Silver Age and TOS movie era. Completed in 1998, it won the "Golden Reel Award" for special effects at an annual film festival at Northern Illinois University.  It was shown on a local TV station in DeKalb, Ill. in 2001.  Since then, it has been remastered and put on You Tube.   You Tube Home: http://www.youtube.com/user/SFVAfilms

October 20, 2011.  Spooftackular No. 2.:    GoatBoyFilms presents: Star Trek: Alpha Strike, Live action, adult filmmaker, Early Golden Age, Star Trek uniforms.  They produced two fan films, one of which is a spoof,  "Misadventures in Space."  http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x60o7_misadventures-in-space_creation (6:10)
You Tube offers a much longer version  which I have not watched:   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFt7TgOjeJ0 (1:14:29)

"Beauty of the Razor" is close to TOS in style and judging from the note I have received from the filmmaker, it is intended as an action/adventure drama and not a spoof.  http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xdr3ge_star-trek-alpha-strike-fan-film_shortfilms (13:40)

See http://startrekreviewed.blogspot.com/2009/06/41.html for all  of the information I have on Goatboy Films.

This episode is so much better than the first one it's hard to believe the same people did it.  It was also nice to see a crossover with George Kayaian (of The Multiverse Crisis) making  a guest appearance.  I love fan film crossovers!  And I also see a "Thank you" to Romulan Wars.  Thanks to all involved for an enjoyable episode!

And as of Oct. 29, 2011 it's available to the Trek fan in Brazil and Portugal!  Here it is with Portuguese subtitles:

October Spooftakular begins a series of weekly Headlines highlighting Star Trek Comedies and Spoofs which were found during 2011, well after they were made and posted.  These will be interrupted by new releases.  Due to the release of a major German Language film, as well as recent finds of several other German Language films, I was going to have a mid-month Oktoberfest headline, which would have highlighted newly found and newly released German Language Star Trek Fan Films.  However, the heavy release schedule has thrown off those plans, plus my own research has exposed the ill-timing of this plan, so I will not be having the general German Language Fan Film feature.  The Spooftakular will continue at least through December, and quite possibly into 2012, depending on the number of releases which come through, as well as any discovery of as-yet unknown Star Trek fan parodies and comedies.

October 1, 2011 Spooftakular No 1.:  Ian White Cult Movies  Presents Star Trek Spoof  The two films in this series were done by a British Star Trek Fan a few years ago, but only discovered by me this year.  Each is roughly the length of a one-hour episode, without commercials.  Most aspects of these lighthearted parodies are Golden Age, although a few Silver Age aspects creep into the presentations.  They were sufficiently slick, yet oddball that I had to check to be sure that Ian White was an ordinary Star Trek Fan, not a British comic with his own TV show.   For everything I know about this filmmaker, see http://startrekreviewed.blogspot.com/2009/06/45.html .  Or, to go directly to watch these amusing films, follow this directory:
