Apprehensive Films proudly presents, in association with Cult Radio A-Go-Go, the 30th Anniversary Special Edition DVD of Hardware Wars. Follow the adventures of Fluke Starbucker, Arty Deco, Ham Salad and the rest of the Red Eye Knights in this spectacle that was light years ahead of it's time. This is the original Star Wars parody! Before the Robot Chicken Parody, Before the Family Guy Parody... Way Way Before. This DVD includes over an hour of great content including the Original Uncut Film with newly restored wires and strings, Director's Commentary, Creature Features Interviews with Bob Wilkins and much much more. This edition is fully approved by and licensed from writer-director Ernie Fosselius.
Hardware Wars won over 15 first place film festival awards, including the award for Most Popular Short Film at the Chicago Film Festival. It is considered to be the most profitable short film of all time, grossing US $1,000,000 as compared to its paltry US $8,000 budget (a much better profit ratio than Star Wars itself). George Lucas said in a 1999 interview on the UK's Big Breakfast TV show that Hardware Wars was his favorite Star Wars parody. --The Official Hardware Wars Wikipedia Page
