It is set in the universe of the sci-fi-based Star Wars media franchise. Directed by Steve Binder, it was the first Star Wars spin-off film, set between the events of the original film and the yet-to-be-released sequel The Empire Strikes Back (1980). It stars the main cast of the original Star Wars and introduces the character of Boba Fett, who appeared in later films. It has become something of a cultural legend due to the underground quality of its existence.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flixxy.com\/star-wars-holiday-special-1978-the-infamous-classic-in-stunning-60fps.htm\">https:\/\/www.flixxy.com\/star-wars-holiday-special-1978-the-infamous-classic-in-stunning-60fps.htm<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Step back to 1978 for the ultimate Star Wars curiosity\u2014The Holiday Special!
