10 | No one is safe as [[Franchise/StarTrek William Shatner]], [[Series/TJHooker William Shatner]], [[Series/BostonLegal William Shatner]], [[Series/TheTwilightZone1959 William Shatner]], [[Series/{{Rescue 911}} William Shatner]], [[UsefulNotes/EsperantoTheUniversalLanguage William Shatner]], [[Series/SaturdayNightLive William Shatner]] and [[WesternAnimation/StarTrekTheAnimatedSeries William Shatner]] team up to kill... Creator/WilliamShatner. |
11 | |
12 | When Creator/WilliamShatner arrives at the first annual [[FanConvention ShatnerCon]], he is confronted by hordes of his own fans, who worship his various media incarnations - and an attempted terrorist attack by the Campbellians, crazed fans of Creator/BruceCampbell. However, the attack is thwarted by a humble movie projectionist, who unwittingly summons an even more dangerous threat: every character ever played by Creator/WilliamShatner, who all arrive with a single goal in mind: Kill the real Creator/WilliamShatner. |
