Before fan films were a thing, there was Hardware Wars (1978), the ultimate low-budget Star Wars parody now streaming on SCREW. Created by Ernie Fosselius, this 13-minute short turned household junk into sci-fi magic—spaceships were irons and toasters, lightsabers were flashlights, and Chewbacca became “Chewchilla the Wookie Monster.” The absurdity, combined with deadpan narration, made it an instant cult classic, and for many (including me), it was first discovered as a hilarious filler short on HBO between movies back in the day.
