Turkish Star Wars (1982)
Turkish-made film commonly known as Turkish Star Wars because of its notorious bootlegging of Star Wars film clips worked into the film. Released in 1982, Dünyayı Kurtaran Adam was created in Turkey caught in the midst of massive political upheaval. As a result, American-made films were not easily acquired and were often remade with a Turkish cast and setting. The musical soundtrack is entirely lifted from Western film hits of the time, primarily using Raiders of the Lost Ark. There are also scenes incorporating the music of Moonraker, Flash Gordon, Battlestar Galactica, Planet of the Apes and Disney's The Black Hole. Films considered the worst ever!

Turkish Star Wars (1982) is super groovy. The dialogue is much better than the regular Star Wars, and the acting also. I love how they changed the setting to Earth, it makes the events really seem to hit home. Also, Luke in the regular version is a wiener, these two are far cooler.
