‘Return of the Jedi’ as Directed By David Lynch
By now it seems to be common knowledge that George Lucas approached David Lynch (who immediately declined) about directing 1983’s Return of the Jedi before tapping Richard Marquand for the job. This fanmade trailer goes sort of an obvious route in imagining the possibilities, mainly focussing on choopy slo-mo and “Twin Peaks” style facial superimposing with some static here and there.
Still, it should satisfy mashup completists. I do like the Lost Highway Darth Vader thing at the end though.

Caged Cannibals and Gory Cyborgs To Invade Halloween Horror Nights 35 With Original Houses
It’s a big week for Universal Orlando Resort’s Halloween Horror Nights 2026 when it comes to this year’s original haunted houses.
This year’s Halloween Horror Nights event begins on Friday, August 28, at Universal Orlando Resort and on Thursday, September 3, at Universal Studios Hollywood.
First up was our exclusive preview of sequel house H.R. Bloodengutz Presents: A Halloween Fright-Tacular! In the wake of its announcement comes two new originals that will unleash caged cannibals and cyborg carnage.
In MADLANDS: Caged Cannibals, “A defunct zoo is now the deadly domain of warring cannibal factions that have taken their animal instincts to extremes. They’re territorial. They’re hungry. And you’re lunch.”
In Cybergoria, “Awaken thousands of years in the future in this haunted house and brave a cold world driven by machines with a singular goal: to make you live forever, even if it kills you.”
These houses join previously announced haunts for Sinners and Stranger Things 5.
Jack the Clown and Dr. Oddfellow will be your Ringmasters of Fear for Halloween Horror Nights 2026, which marks the landmark 35th annual event at Universal Orlando. The original HHN characters will also star in their own haunted house at HHN 35, titled Jack & Oddfellow: Chaos & Control.
Stay tuned for much more on HHN 2026 in both Orlando & Hollywood.
