    Hello All..

    I decided to give the recommendation below a try.

    What a wild ride! KUNG FURY is totally ridiculous, but
    extremely well done.

    The "full" film is just 30 minutes. Well worth the look-see.

    OMG.. King Fury was a crowdfunded on Kickstarter in 2o15 and
    raised over $200k but fell short of its $1M goal...

    It is an over the top 80s cop thriller with an attempt to threw
    in retro, hacking, kung fu and... everything but the kitchen
    sink! :P Since they didn't hit their funding needs, much of the
    film was created using green screens and it only runs 31 minutes
    long as opposed to a full length feature.

    All of those setbacks, and it was still a freaking laugh for a
    computer nerd like me. I'm sure some of you have already heard /
    went down the rabbit hole, but if not I think its worth it. This
    will answer most of your questions:

    I thought it was great... furthermore, you can grab it in full @
    youtube, too:

    "Fuck you Kung Fury. Now nothing can stop me and my army of Death!"

    I watched this movie back in the day. If you remember to turn your brain off before watching it, you will enjoy it.

    I love the part where Hitler plays his phone prank :-P

    Some knowledge of things of the 80's is essential and adds to
    the enjoyment. Some things like the name Barbarianna is
    probably a nod to Barbarella of the late 60s?

    I love the part where Hitler plays his phone prank :-P

    I thought the acting/actor for Kung Führer was excellent. I
    loved the exaggerated arm movements during the speech scenes on
    the pulpit.

    Check out this hilarious thing that exapnds on one of the gags.

    Apparently the filming for Part II has wrapped up. I'm reading
    that Michael Fassbender, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and David
    Hasselhoff are to be in the upcoming film.

    I was impressed with the technical execution of the film scenes:
    composites, layering, the artwork details.

    If they pull Part II without screwing up, I will be impressed.

    What I loved was how they managed to stratch the budget. They had only money for a police uniform, for example, and for one police dude, so the part where Hitler start killing police left and right...

    ... well, they recorded the same guy dying 20 times and superposed him 20 times so he was in the scene 20 times at once :-P
