Raiding the Lost Ark is a filmumentary by Jamie Benning which examines the development and production of Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981). It’s not your average behind the scenes documentary, as this 143 minute introspective is 100% fan made. It features a multitude of cast and crew insight from various interviews that have been done over the past 30 years. The dialogue plays over the movie’s entirety as you watch, listen and see various factoids pop up. There are storyboard sequences overlapped, deleted scenes and easter eggs. So if you’re a fan of the movie, a fan of Dr. Jones, do check this out.
The HD version is a pretty large file, so if you’re having problems loading the video, switch to the SD version. It is an amazing piece of work, to which much respect and love goes to Benning for spending the eight months creating this. A lot of attention to detail!
