STAR WARS: A LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS - Impressive Full Fan-Made Film
About a year ago I showed you the first part of a great looking Star Wars fan film called Star Wars: A Light in the Darkness. The full film has since been completed, and now you can watch the whole film below! The movie is actually pretty impressive and has some awesome production value. I think you will be surprised by how good this movie is.
Here's the synopsis for the film:
A young boy watches as the Jedi who saved his people is killed by the very clones who once fought by his side.
Years later, as a member of a small insurgency against the empire he and his team hatch a new plan to take back their planet by drawing the attention of the newly formed rebel alliance.
Armed with the fallen Jedi’s light saber, he and his team battle to strike fear into the local imperial garrison, and overthrow their despotic governor. Their silent attacks give birth to a legend, and the people speak of a phantom Jedi whose spirit has returned.
As the story spreads they manage to draw attention to their forgotten corner of the galaxy, but who will arrive first, the rebel alliance or the empire?
Watch the film below and tell us what you think!
