Galactic Force

From 1978, this is a Super 8mm sci-fi film put together by the Science Fiction Club at Sugg Middle School in Bradenton Florida. An alien vessel is attacked and after its crew is forced to teleport off the ship, they encounter three students at a school on Earth. Due to language barriers, physical differences between the species and a huge misunderstanding that causes a freak reaction to transform the kids into super beings, the battle to save the school (and possibly the Universe) begins.

Well, that was the idea at the time anyway...

The audio soundtrack has been lost for over 25 years so the story will probably make absolutely no sense. Truth be told, it probably still didn't make sense with it. It's a mish mash spectacle with aliens, super heroes and a dude in a monkey suit. But heck, that's the charm of a production done entirely by twelve and thirteen year olds (with the exception of the poor teacher who had to handle the camera). It also features the best special effects that Sharpie markers and razor blades could ever provide.

Cheer, laugh or scratch your head but at least be entertained in some bizarre way for the next 8 minutes.
