What can a faneditor do with the latest Bond outing, Spectre? The film's production woes - particularly the troubled screenplay - were highly publicized due to the Sony hack leaks. Although one could polish the movie's first 90 minutes, I don't think the last act can be saved.
However, Spectre contains one standout sequence: the pre-titles adventure set against Mexico's Day of the Dead celebrations. So I've decided to use that part, along with some other scenes I found worth revisiting, to create a new James Bond short called The Dead Are Alive. The edit will also feature a custom gun barrel sequence based on Maurice Binder's classic design.
Original film name: Spectre
Fanedit name: 007: The Dead Are Alive
Original running time: 148 min
Fanedit running time: 17 min
Other sources: Spectre Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Thomas Newman), Vivaldi (Andreas Scholl, Australian Brandenburg Orchestra & Paul Dyer)
Synopsis: After a secret mission in Mexico City, James Bond has one more loose end to tie up.
