The Hunt for Gollum is a fan-made addition to the Lord of the Rings saga, with its world premiere on the 3rd of May, 2009. From a quick look at the two trailers, it’s looking pretty darn good.
The script for the Hunt for Gollum has been pieced together from the appendices of the Lord of the Rings books. Chris Bouchard, the writer-director, then assembled a team of dedicated cast and crew and began filming around the UK. The 40 minute movie is completely non-commercial and will be released online and free to download.
The Hunt For Gollum is an unofficial not for profit short film by a group of enthusiast filmmakers. As a Lord of the Rings Fan Film, we are not affiliated with the Tolkien Estate or New Line Cinema and are producing this project as an entirely non commercial film. As with other fan films we are making this purely for the enjoyment of the material and the experience of making a high quality low budget film.

The Gollum fan film is getting a ton of coverage all over the net, and I'm not surprised as I've been writing about them on my daily fan film blog, <A Href ="http://www.fancinematoday.com">fancinematoday.com for months. For what it's worth, if you want to find out more about fan films in general, I wrote the first book about the history and future of 'em, Homemade Hollywood, which just came out.
