In celebration of the 35th anniversary today of the release of original Star Wars, Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes have premiered the film Hughes The Force on their SModcast Internet Television (S.I.T.).

The film, directed, written, and produced by Producer by J.C. Reifenberg, is inspired by Star Wars, as well as all those 1980’s John Hughes movies, like The Breakfast Club and Weird Science. Hughes The Forces revolves around Simon and Henry, two unpopular teens who, in an effort to get into the epic end of the year high school party, must find a hot chick willing to go with them. When that proves difficult, they take matters into their own hands with Simon’s Slave Leia action figure.

Watch the entire film here below, which includes an introduction by Mewes and Reifenberg.
