Finnish Sci-fi Movies

What?

Well, of course, I wouldn't expect any of you to be familiar with "Star Wreck, In the Pirkinning", would I?

A decidedly low-budget movie, made by a group of friends who built the starship enterprise bridge set into their apartments. Made on begged, borrowed, jury-rigged equipment, and turning out a movie that was fun and witty, and a spoof, of course, of the  far better known  Star-Trek.

Full Movie, Youtube!


 That one was funded by using all their savings, begging, and friends donations. After that, they took a few years putting together a full-length movie, where the third reich was surviving on the dark side of the moon until their fleet of swastika festooned flying saucers was ready to re-invade Earth. Fans of Star Wreck, crowd-funding, facebook, twitter, and real studios....

And that, while a little clunky in places, seems to have opened the eyes of the movie industry in Hollywood....
Perrkele! Because the next movie's just been announced!!!!!

"We started out with a small Finnish Star Trek -parody. We followed it up with a big Finnish-German-Australian scifi Nazi comedy. And now it’s time to see how films are made in the Hollywood. Yes – that’s where we are headed, and we’d love to invite you alongside the journey!"
