Hardware Wars

Hardware Wars (1978) is a short film parody of the classic science fiction film Star Wars. The thirteen-minute film, which premiered in theatres only seven months after Star Wars, consisted of little more than inside jokes and visual puns that heavily depended upon audience familiarity with the original. The theme song is Richard Wagner's famous Ride of the Valkyries. The tagline was You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll kiss three bucks goodbye.
