0x1 - Darkstar: Terror at the Edge of Time: The Watch Party

March 14, 2023

DARKSTAR: TERROR AT THE EDGE OF TIME: THE WATCH PARTY, is a movie-length version of the revolutionary video game DARKSTAR: THE INTERACTIVE MOVIE featuring commentary by Mystery Science Theater 3000 alumni and Darkstar cast members Trace Beaulieu, Frank Conniff, Beez McKeever, Mary Jo Pehl and J. Elvis Weinstein. Darkstar: The Interactive Movie, created by animator, writer, director and producer J. Allen Williams, was initially conceived in 2000 but was not released online until 2010. At its conception, Darkstar featured over thirteen hours of live action cinema, far more than any other full motion video game at the time. As Captain John O’Neil, players awaken from a 300-year cryogenic sleep to find the Earth has been destroyed and they have no memory of who they are or what they are meant to be doing. By exploring their 360 degree surroundings, players unlock over thirteen hours of film clips that together tell the entire story.
