Gremlins vs. Batman, The Goonies, The Exorcist, Indiana Jones

The Pitch: Sacha Feiner created this incredible alternative fan sequence using the Gremlins 2 Film break scene. Created over two months using computer enhanced puppets. Sacha writes: “I made a new mold out of a hard cast of one of the original sculptures from the production. I created a batch of new foam puppets especially for this project. Their performances are enhanced by computer effects, which makes them able to do nearly anything, from running to jumping or facial expressions. The entire shooting takes place in a bluescreen studio, arranged in my basement, in order to superimpose the gremlins in the chosen movies.” … “This is a fan, non profit project. I did everything alone, from the filming to the compositing. I only had assistants for the puppeteering. The overall budget, including the purchasing of the original sculpture, the HD and studio equipment, the molding and painting of the puppets and the editing, was about US $3000.” Thanks to the Movie Blog for the tip.

    That's not just good, that's incredible. Someone is going to get hired very quickly if they aren't already doing that line of work at the moment. Superb.
  • Peter,

    Best VOTD EVER!

    This is awesome. The fact that someone did this. I am so happy. Gremlins 3 would be A great movie. Please somebody get this movie made. Look, if someone can make A decent Freddy Vs. Jason after ten or fifteen years of those characters not being on screen. Then, someone can make A new Gremlins movie. Not to mention Freddy Vs. Jason only cost thirty million to make and ended up making over A hundred million worldwide. Please stop the God Awful remake trend and just do A sequel to this.
