Night of the Living Trekkies (Happy Halloween!!)
Monday Oct 31, 2016
Monday Oct 31, 2016
Happy Halloween from your fiends at HG World! This year, we're presenting a "test" pilot based on the novel by Kevin David Anderson and Sam Stall. This is Chapter 4 "The Cage" which features Tanja Milojevic as "Leia" James Baxter"> as "Donnie" and Rish Outfield as the Narrator. This sci-fi/zombie/comedy/adventure follows a group of rag-tag Trekkies getting together for the fifth annual GulfCon (billed as the "largest Starfleet Convention in the western Gulf Coast region"). Our heroes are dressed in homemade uniforms and armed with prop phasers-but soon find themselves defending their hotel and convention center against hordes of flesh-eating undead. Suddenly, all of their useless knowledge about particle physics and old Star Trek episodes has genuine real-world applications! And while hotel employees and regular civilians are dying left and right, our Trekkies summon strength and courage by emulating their favorite starship-voyaging characters. Packed with hundreds of gags referencing Star Trek, Star Wars, comic books, and fan conventions, Night of the Living Trekkies reads like the strange lovechild of Galaxy Quest and Dawn of the Dead. Journey to the final frontier of zombie science-fiction satire! Thanks to Kevin, Sam and to Quirk Books for letting us play in their sandbox this Halloween! Night of the Living Trekkies, Chapter 4 "The Cage" - Based on the Novel by Kevin David Anderson and Sam Stall. Published by Quirk Books. Adapted for audio by Jay Smith. Featuring James Baxter, Tanja Milojevic and Rish Outfield. Line Direction by James Baxter. Line Editing by Bryan Lincoln. Sound Effects and Foley by Scott Pigg & Michael L Stokes. Edited, Mixed and Mastered by Michael L Stokes. Musical Direction by Michael L Stokes with music by Michael L Stokes and Kevin MacLeod used under creative commons license.
