Samuli returns to the crime scene in Star Wreck II: The Old Shit, this time with Rudi Airisto, who joins as a writer and the voice for the Vulgar, Mr. Spook. The second film is a huge improvement over the first in every way. This time the space battles and the bridge were rendered in 3D and more sounds and music were added. The acting was much improves and the crew come across as actual personalities. The film is full of slapstick humor and it actually works very well at times. This time, Pirk's mission is to go to the Fibula sector and destroy all enemies. But before getting to fire a single shot, the crew of the Kickstart must solve some serious problems on their own ship...
Practical Effects
3D spaceships rendered on someone's dad's computer in 1994.

Pirk's ego finally has actual jokes attached to it.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This 8-minute sequel took two years to make because Samuli and Rudi were literally teenagers with dial-up internet and one computer between them.
Star Wreck would eventually spawn a feature-length film with actual budget—proving that Finland's greatest export is relentless nerdy persistence.
