Worcester Star Wars remake circa 1977

Came across this via metafilter:

In June of 1977, Jim Jongsma, John Jongsma, and Gary Baker saw Star Wars at White City Cinema in Worcester, Massachusetts. They were impressed. In the months after seeing the movie, so many costumes and models were made that they decided to remake a few scenes on super 8 film. The project grew into a fifty minute film.

A 15 min version of the film is here and it’s amazing.

The site describing the film is here and it’s almost unbelievable, the work that went into this 30 years ago.
