There are tons and tons of terrible movies out there, there are also a bunch of very good ones. Then there are some that are so terrible they're good (Sharknado). Then there's 'Kung Fury'

Its not a terrible movie whatsoever, ...well it could be considered terrible if it wasn't so satirical , but it IS satirical. Kung Fury is exactly what it's supposed to be... "unbeilevably insane". It takes the craziest most ridiculous stereotypes and makes them even more insane, all in the name of comedy. On the surface 'Kung Fury' is an action movie...a satirical late 80's early 90's action movie, but its all done in the name of comedy and awesomeness... all of it. It makes for one of the most amazing short films ever created. A little back story.....(scroll to the bottom to watch Kung Fury!)

Origins

Kung Fury is a 2015 Swedish martial arts comedy short film written, directed by, and starring David Sandberg. It pays homage to 1980s martial arts and police action films.David Sandberg is a Swedish filmmaker who has directed television commercials and music videos. In 2012, he quit the commercial directing and focused on writing a script for an action comedy film set in the 1980s, inspired by action films of that era. He initially spent US$5,000 on producing and shooting footage with his friends, which became the first trailer.

In December 2013, Sandberg began a Kickstarter campaign to crowdfund the film's production with the goal of raising US$200,000 to produce a 30-minute version of the film and stream it online for free. A second goal was added with the target set to $1 million to rewrite the story into a full-length feature and a possible distribution deal. Most of the raw footage over green screen had been filmed using a Canon EOS 5D and a Sony FS700, but additional funding was required for post-production.

The Kickstarter project ended on January 25, 2014, with $630,019 pledged by 17,713 backers.

Due to a limited budget, Sandberg shot the majority of the film at his office in Umeå, Sweden, using digital effects to replicate the streets of Miami. As he could only afford one police uniform during the production of the trailer, he filmed the police precinct scene by shooting each extra separately and compositing them in the scene. The single-frame scene where Kung Fury dispatches dozens of Nazi soldiers was achieved by combining the primary take of Sandberg's moves with over 60 takes of individual extras attacking him.

On July 30, 2014, Sandberg announced that he and his crew had begun filming new footage, with the 30 backers who pledged to be in the film as extras. Filming was also done in Stockholm for additional scenes and stunts.

In keeping with the film's '80s theme, the visual effects artists softened the film clarity and added videotape wear effects to give the illusion of it being a worn VHS copy being played on an old VCR. One instance of this effect is in the scene where the Viking Babe Katana summons Thor. The scene was in the trailer with Joanna Häggblom originally as Katana, but because Häggblom was replaced by Helene Ahlson for the actual film, visual scratches and distortion effects were added to the scene to mask the cast change.

True Survivor music video

...and what movie wouldn't be complete with out a music video? Producers got David Hasselhoff to perform 'True Survivor' and make the most epic music video ever created. The video feels as if it was made in the 80's as well. Its an extension of 'Kung Fury' to the bone and in itself is almost as, or even just as good as the movie. Once you watch Kung Fury, watch the 'True Survivor' music video

'Kung Fury' is utterly perfect in being the movie that it is and that makes it a movie you must see. Ill be perfectly honest, everything about Kung Fury is great. How do I pick 4 of the best parts of Kungf Fury? I can't. Watch it and you'll agree this must be a 71List. Unfortunately it can't be, so I just took 4 scenes that stood out slightly only because I was eating Pizza during the movie and it was delicious. These scenes correspond to each bite of delicious pizza.

Hitler shoots up a police station....over the phone

You heard me right. Hitler steals an 80's cellphone, calls the Miami police dept. and shoots it up, through the phone... epically awesome

Thor

The Norse God 'Thor' makes a grand appearance in Kung Fury and hes everything Marvel's Thor isn't. He may even look a little familiar if your up to date on the internet.

<---Remember this guy? Well the producers saw this pic and thought hed be perfect for Thor and HE IS.

Andreas Cahling got his acting start thanks to his 'jacked old guy' viral photo. He has since been cast in another movie as well. Goes to show you its never too late to start acting...if he even is old. He might be 30 and just looks grey.

Larger than life Thor is completely vain, utterly awesome and hilarious

Two Nazis talk about Mustaches

One of the best scenes in the movie had two Nazis discussing mustaches and it was great

Kung Fury v.s the Nazi horde

Just watch the most epic fight scene ever created. Ripped directly out of a 90's video game. Complete with bystanders in the background, nonsensically cheering and moving around in 'cycles' but never getting involved, the choreography is utterly perfect to make this 2015 fight scene, set in the 1940's feel like its straight out of 1991.
