The White Stripes News:

Jack White Sci-Fi Spoof Movie to Screen at Comic-Con

Based on its ridiculous trailer (below), Mutant Swinger From Mars looks like it accomplished what Tim Burton's infamous 1996 spoof Mars Attacks! tried to pull off, at a fraction of the cost. And, instead of nutbar cameos courtesy of everyone from Jack Nicholson to Jim Brown, it features a brief appearance from a young Jack White (highlighted above), who plays the wisecracking Mikey.

According to a White Stripes fan site, the movie wrapped in 1998, and an in-progress screening was held in 2003. But Mutant Swinger From Mars is finally ready for its official close-up at this year's San Diego Comic-Con, which packs in the nerds July 23-26. (Via TwentyFourBit.)

Web rumors say Jack may have filmed a new intro to be shown at the premiere, but there's no official word from his reps at press time. Trailer after the jump:
