Description:
Award winning unofficial prequel to The Lord of the Rings dramatising Aragorn & Gandalf's long search for Gollum. This 40 minute film, made by fans for fans is based on the appendices of LOTR and was painstakingly shot on a low budget as a homage to Peter Jackson's trilogy and the writing of J.R.R. Tolkien.
Costing less than $5,000 to make, with a team of volunteers, Independent Online Cinema are proud to have brought Middle-earth to the screen once more. We hope you enjoy The Hunt For Gollum as much as we enjoyed making it.

Sep 6, 2010 - The scene at 5:15 look alot like Caspar David Friedrich's painting: Wanderer above the Mists! WOW! I love Romanticism. Sublime.

Sep 6, 2010 - Don't know when this was made but we likes it very much. It covers the story Gandalf told Frodo in the first book. The chariters Strider and Gandalf look somewhat simular to the movies. It is (to me) a good companion movie short to be with the new Hobbit movie coming next year.

Sep 7, 2010 - Congratulations, guys! The fight scene on the woods was even better then the ones on PJ's movie. I'd dare say even your Arwen is prettier. lol Totally recomended! Grab some headsets for a full experience. The audio is indeed low.

Sep 8, 2010 - great made, but the story doesn't fit... gandalf doesnt know about the nazgul cause then he wouldnt have sent frodo away with the ring...
kayskreed Says:
Sep 8, 2010 - It was honestly better than I had expected it to be. Undoubtedly, it's difficult to get accustomed to the new actors, most notably Strider's clean cut long (being that he is a dirt-ladened ranger), but I was humbled nonetheless by the presentation. Decent effort!

Sep 8, 2010 - stupid Orcs!! ruin everything!

Sep 8, 2010 - Didn't Gandolf have to go to Ministhylith to learn about the history of the ring? Here he seems to know it all already.

Sep 9, 2010 - Fantastic job! Its no easy feat to make fan fiction of this quality. You've got to have everything work right on the production side in order to capture the feel of the source material. Not to mention real talent (both in front and behind the lens). That's what sets this apart. The camera work, score, costume, editing and direction all mimiced peter jackson's tone & style. Anyone who doesn't give props where they are due is mental. Congrats to all involved on bringing your vision to life!
