It’s a non-profit fan production by Sasha Feiner in which he takes the Gremlins 2 “Film Break” scene and flings the little monsters into Batman, The Exorcist, Raiders of the Lost Ark, The Goonies and even The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms. He created new Gremlins puppets to film the “imposed” elements, using CGI as an enhancement. The stop-motion Beast sequence alone is worth your time.

Great! Especially that Beast from 20,000 Fathoms scene.

Rumour has it the Too Many Monkeys Production Company made this fake trailer for the Sci-Fi London 2003 film festival fake trailer competition.

It’s for a [non-existent] film called Attack of the Giant Radioactive Robot Women from Venus (2003), which is “a grim film noir homage that brilliantly questions accepted gender roles and male superiority in a pre-feminist age”.

Another rumour has it that a remake of this trailer has gone into production for release in 2010, directed by Michael Bay [no relation].
