In 1982, two Mississippi boys recreated a $22m film, shot-for-shot, on their pocket money. Chris Strompolos and Eric Zala were aged 10 and 11. Their mission would take them seven years to complete, and it would push their friendship to the edge. There'd be amateur stunts, fires, visits to the emergency ward, production shut down by angry parents and many fallouts. It would swallow them whole. But decades later a lost tape would be unearthed, bringing Eric and Chris back together for their final scene and face-to-face with one of their heroes.

Back in 1981, the action-adventure movie Raiders Lost Ark was a fan favorite for many. But the ultimate fans were a teenage trio who kind of took it a little bit further.At age 12 and 11, in the summer of 1981, our guest today, director, Eric Zala, and friends devoted what turned out to be seven years of their childhood to shooting a shot-by-shot adaptation of Steven Spielberg's, Raiders of the Lost Ark. Driven only by their fandom with no idea about editing, sound, or movie making, Eric, Chris Strompolos, and Jayson Lamb finished the film (except for the blown-up plane scene) and even had a hometown premiere.Years later, after studying at NYU film school, Eli Roth got a hold of a copy of the film, showed it to Steven Spielberg, and the rest is history. The guys decided to finalize the project with their new recognition by shooting the final scene they had abandoned.Director Jeremy Coon and Tim Skousen joined them to document their adventure. In 2015, The Raider! The Story Of The Greatest Fan Film Made documentary was released.Eric has credits on other films like An Early Twilight (1993) and Medal of Honor: Rising Sun (2003). After all these years, Eric's start to indie filmmaking remains a fascinating dream-coming-through story. It was hilarious hearing about the making Raiders adaptation and their parents' reactions. Enjoy my entertaining conversation with Eric Zala.

Em 1982, três garotos de 11 anos de idade do Mississippi decidiram refilmar “Indiana Jones e os Caçadores da Arca Perdida”. Eles levaram sete turbulentos anos que testaram sua determinação, intensificaram sua amizade e quase incendiaram a casa de seus pais. Eles completaram todas as cenas, com exceção de uma… a cena do avião. 33 anos depois, os amigos se reúnem para finalmente terminar o sonho de infância. Mas é mais fácil filmar um filme inteiro como crianças… ou uma cena como adultos? FICHA TÉCNICA DO DOCUMENTÁRIO

Today marks the return of The Brad Gilmore Show! Brad welcomes Eric Zala of Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Adaptation. In 1982, in Ocean Springs, Mississippi, Chris Strompolos, eleven, asked Eric Zala, twelve, a question: “Would you like to help me do a remake Raiders of the Lost Ark?  I'm playing Indiana Jones.” And they did it. Every shot, every line of dialogue, every stunt. They borrowed and collected costumes, convinced neighborhood kids to wear grass skirts and play natives, cast a fifteen-year-old as Indys love interest, rounded up seven thousand snakes (sort of), built the Ark, the Idol, the huge boulder, found a desert in Mississippi, and melted the bad guys faces off.   Today's show sponsored by: Loot Crate, click the link to save 10% Follow The Raiders Guys on Twitter: @RadiersGuys Buy "The Adaption" & "RAIDERS!": http://www.raidersguys.com/all-products Follow ME on Twitter: @BradGilmore
