Status: Partially Found

Our Footloose Remake is a 2010 crowd-funded parody film and a collaborative effort between a variety of amateur filmmakers brought together by the film community known as Channel 101[1]. David Seger and Tim Marklevitz served as the film's producers.[2]

Background

Development of the film originally began as a snarky response to Hollywood's 2008 announcement of an official remake to the 1984 film Footloose.[3]

The project divided the original 1984 film into 54 different scenes, giving each one to a different set of filmmakers who would recreate their given scene in their own unique way.[4]

Once all scenes were done, they were edited together into a complete film with conflicting stylistic choices between scenes being played for comedic effect.

Channel 101 would follow-up Our Footloose Remake with Our Robocop Remake, a response to the official 2014 remake of Robocop.[5]

Availability

The film premiered at the Downtown Independent Theatre in Los Angeles on July 1st, 2010 and was later uploaded to David Seger's Vimeo account on April 11th, 2011.[6]

The film was eventually taken down on April 17th, 2018 via a copyright claim from the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry.[7]

The complete film is currently unavailable anywhere either online or on physical media. However, a handful of scenes have been uploaded to Youtube and Vimeo by their respective filmmakers, totalling 18 out of 54 scenes found.[8]
