Episode #009 - The War of the Stars

This is the last episode of the "Internet Archive" era of Abnormal State Theatre, or what I've dubbed "Season Zero"...I'm putting the show on hiatus for about three months in order to record and edit a mess of episodes that will be the first "season" of the show after switching over to Podbean. I get into the whys, wherefores, and reasons thereof more at the beginning of the show itself. Suffice it to say that I'm aiming to make this show a little more legitimate, as in actually airing on at least a monthly basis as opposed to the catch-as-catch-can scheduling that's plagued it from the very start. Again, all will be revealed and explained in due time. This episode takes a look at an interesting experiment in fan editing...an intrepid soul known as The Man Behind the Mask has undertaken an odd but intriguing project--to take the original 1977 "Star Wars" (the one that was ultimately given the retconned title "Episode IV - A New Hope") and recut it into a grindhouse-style exploitation film he re-christened "The War of the Stars") His level of success is open to debate, but it did make for an intriguing watch. If you want to check it out for yourself, head over to In the meantime, I'll probably still drop a few Short Takes into the feed here before the official relaunch through Podbean. To all of you who have taken the time to listen to these first nine episodes over the past couple of years, I owe you a debt of gratitude, and hope you will enjoy the retooled show when the time comes.
