More info:
Inspired by 'Star Wars', 'Escape from New York', 'Flash Gordon' and 'The Running Man' - 'The Fantastic Adventures of Henry Hawke' is a ridiculously cheesy and over the top science fiction film that I made as my graduate project at Bournemouth University.

Awesome music by my friend Sam 'O Neil:

[Mattthecatrobinson]

I love your channel!

@sjc1207 Nah... Just a stroke of luck here and there.

[sjc1207]

@P0pe0nD0pe I hope you're not suggesting an illegal download...

[P0pe0nD0pe]

@sjc1207 Or you can get some *Ahem* not so pricey software and a little knowledge of how to get stuffs for free...

[JOSEPHRHYSFILMS]

i would dress up as an alien myself and use my software to clone me, my friends say if i put them in my videos i have to pay them

[MonsterCrypt]

It's amazing what film makers can achieve with just a bit of initiative. I've seen much worse produced for about the price of a new car.
