Erin Cahill in "Just Before Dark" - Web Short (2009)

Erin Cahill (Jen, Time Force) had a starring role in the three-minute comedy short titled "Just Before Dark." Cahill portrays Danielle Fitzpatrick who arrives home from a day at a carnival with her friend Landon. When he suggests they take their friendship to the next level, Danielle reveals that she's never had romantic feelings for him. Landon, however, believes that it's his job as a Jedi that turns Danielle off. She gets offended by the notion and walks away but Landon isn't finished. He uses his Jedi powers to force her to choke, much like "Star Wars" iconic villain Darth Vader. He stops quickly and when Danielle accuses him of being a bad Jedi he uses the force once again to attempt to snatch back the stuffed animal he took for her at the carnival. Danielle yells for him to stop and tells him that she never wants to see him again.
