This piece was a surprise from every member involved in Buddyboys: The Movie. The reason why this piece was done so secretly was to give everyone who attended the premiere something to see that they were not expecting. Another reason this piece was made was to enhance the entire movie experience.
This production was done originally to be a lead into Golden Roll Productions second feature film, The Continuing Adventures of Batman & Robin. The story would feature Bill Shute as Batman, Michael W. Mowery as the Rainbow Wizard and up and coming GRP player Brian Repici as Robin. Many rough story ideas were conceived and test shoots were done in order to develop the film. Unfortunately, other projects began to surface and The Continuing Adventures of Batman & Robin would remain a trailer for the time being.
This clip featured night time shots of Philadelphia, PA; Camden and Blackwood, NJ all serving as the backdrop of Gotham City. Bill and Mike would also sneak into their old high school and shoot a few scenes in the auditorium. In all locations, the cast risked being seen in wardrobe, ruining the surprise. This however never occurred. Michael Mowery provides the narration over a music bed by Pseudo Echo.
