"He tasks me! He tasks me, and I shall have him!
I'll chase him round the Moons of Nibia, and round the Antares Maelstrom, and round Perdition's Flames before I give him up! "
Sins of the Past return to haunt Admiral James T. Kirk...
A minor training cruise turns into a desperate fight for survival
as an old enemy from Kirk's past returns to extract his revenge.
Entangled in this web of vengeance is an inexperienced new crew,
a long lost son and a startling new scientific creation.
A creation, that in the wrong hands, could become the most powerful weapon in the galaxy!
Relive the adventure from an entirely new perspectiive!
tagline: "The KIRK P.O.V. Cut"
Basic details: The intent of this edit is NOT to create a better movie. Wrath of Khan already rocks!!!
Instead, I set out to create an alternate, and hopefully, entertaining viewing experience.
We have all seen WRATH OF KHAN a million times. It is the most popular and considered the best of the Original Cast movies.
So, if one wanted to edit this classic gem, what approach should one take?
I have always been facinated by the fact that KIRK and KHAN never physically meet in the movie. So I wondered if it would be possible
to recut the movie by removing most of scenes with KHAN and retelling the story from KIRK's point of view?
In this version, we the audience only see KHAN when KIRK does, and experience the adventure from KIRK's perspective.
Hopefully, this will provide the viewer with a fresh experience while rewatching this Trek Classic for the upteemth time!
