Wha rid that .mkv was actually a high quality reenactment with different actors and millions of slight differences peppered throughout the story. And if a viewer of the original and a viewer of the .mkv talked about the movie they would agree on most things. But the color of the sunset or the home town name of the main character maybe different?

Warner Brothers sued and won against Asylum for this very thing lmao. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mockbuster

Well at the very least it would be an interesting court case!

The Asylum suit was about trademark, not copyright. Asylum changed the title of the film to not infringe on Warner brother’s trademark and released it anyway.
