The New Voyages crew is bringing us all a great new Trek fan film, called “Blood & Fire.” And they has just released a very cool teaser trailer for it that’s filled with special effects. This story is written by David Gerrold. Here’s a bit more on the production:
Blood and Fire, Part 1.
Based on an script written by David Gerrold (Trouble with Tribbles), “Blood and Fire” was originally planned for The Next Generation. The script, an AIDS allegory that was considered two controversial 20 years ago, has been adapted to The Original Series era by Carlos Pedraza. Gerrold is also back as the director. Denise Crosby (TNG: Tasha Yar) has guest role playing a scientist, but it isn’t central to the story. This episode is also the first to feature Ben Tolpin as Mr. Spock.
Here is the official description from the Phase II site:
Pursued and damaged by repeated Klingon attacks, the crew of the Enterprise must respond to the distress call from a Federation research ship. In a matter of hours the ship and crew will be consumed by a nearby star and the crew of the Enterprise will be consumed by an mysterious horror that threatens both ships as the Klingons watch and wait. .
