It’s been about a week and a half since I posted anything (I’ll explain why in a post later this week), but I knew I would be remiss if I did not make this post now. Back in May, I wrote about two Street Fighter fan films I found on the internet. They were released within two days of each other, and were both very respectable efforts, to be sure. What I missed, however, to both my detriment and yours, was a Street Fighter fan film that preceded both fan films from May. I present to you, Street Fighter High.

Street Fighter High follows the World Warriors before they were the World Warriors. While the production quality, effects, costumes, actors, etc. may not be on par with Street Fighter: Legacy and Street Fighter: Beginning’s End, the sheer entertainment value alone propels it far above the two serious fan films from May. Released in April 2010, Street Fighter High is a look at the World Warriors when their hearts were being broken, instead of their bones.
Did I mention that the Street Fighter High team is working on a sequel, with a plethora of new characters? Well, they are.
I, for one, can’t wait.
