A small band of Finnish Star Trek fans created this 105-minute Star
Trek/Babylon 5 parody, and they did an exceptionally good job doing so.
The starship crew consists of Captain James B. Pirk (Samuli Torssonen),
Commander Info (Antti Satama), Plingon Commander Dwarf (Timo
Vuorensola), and the beautiful Lieutenant Whip (Tiina Routamaa). The
film starts out with an armada of P-Fleet starships dropping out of
warp and approaching a maggot hole (worm hole). Eight years previously,
Pirk and his crew were stranded on 21st Century Earth (Finland). Pirk
tries to convince a female that he's from the future by showing her his
hand twinkler (hand phaser). Her boyfriend tosses him into the street
where he's roughed over by a few suburban-looking gang-bangers. Pirk
then threatens to open a bag of whoopass on them with his hand
twinkler, but the batteries are dead. Later, he phones Dwarf. The
frustrated Plingon works at Bobby's Grill where he serves hot dogs to
factory drones. In ST: First Contact, the Vulcans land on Earth to meet
Zephram Cochrane. They land and party with rock star Jeff Cochbrane.
The timeline had changed. The country's entire space program had been
cancelled. But Pirk had a backup plan to restore the timeline. He must
retrieve the Vulgar's ship and become the Emperor of Earth.
Unfortunately, Cochbrane sold the ship to the Russians. Pirk, Info, and
Dwarf quickly found the Tachanya nuclear facility where the starship
was housed. They surprised the guard who shoots about fifteen rounds
out of his AK-47, but four hand twinkler shots take him out. In the
words of Pirk, Piece of pie. Once Pirk, Info, and Dwarf storm the
facility, the workers believe it to be a revolution. They welcomed Pirk
and his crew to bring an end to capitalism. An alliance with Russia is
soon formed, and guarantees him an army of engineers and red shirts to
build his ship (the CPP Kickstart). At last, the starhip is completed.
The ship leaves Earth's gravity and Pirk gives the command to go to
'twist factor two'. They fire twinklers and light balls and destroy the
International Space Station. Now, a black and white propaganda film
featured Emperor Pirk and Russian President Ulyanov bringing a new
peace to the world. Scenes showed the Kickstart flying in formation
over Russian tanks, and fighters fighting along side with
turn-of-the-century gatling guns. Russian soldiers are wearing P-Fleet
(TNG-era Starfleet) uniforms. Russia had conquered the world; but as
the saying goes, absolute power corrupts absolutely. Meanwhile in the
Epsilon Quadrant, a small craft appears from the maggot hole . Captain
Sergey Fukov (a former Chernobyl coolant engineer and Ozzie Osborne
look-alike), captain of the CPP Kalinka, was the welcoming committee.
Fukov destroys the craft. On the other side of the maggot hole, resides
a parallel universe and Babel 13, where Pirk's objective lies to
restore the timeline. But first, he must get past Babel 13's Captain
Sherrypie. The film displayed Hollywood-grade special effects. Their
transporters dematerialize people from the top down, and rematerialize
them from the bottom up. This effect was done quite nicely. Personally,
I have a preference for ship images. Head on, Pirk's starship resembled
the USS Enterprise-E. The sequence of the ship lifting off from dry
dock and leaving Earth's atmosphere was stunning. This was very
professionally done and left no marks of an amateur movie. The movie
also featured some spectacular ship-to-ship battle sequences. The
quality was on the same level as ST: First Contact when Starfleet
engaged the Borg. Another scene matched the CGI effects of ST: Nemesis
when the Enterprise plunged into the Scimitar. I was totally impressed
by the FX. Once I got over the subtitles, I thoroughly enjoyed the
movie. On a scale of one to five, I give it a four. --Bob Stutzman,
