Kung Fury was the Hail Mary of an aspiring filmmaker seeking to carve a career for himself and, shortly after the 30-minute hyperviolent 80s kung fu extravaganza hit the internet, it’s been met with almost unanimous praise from fans and critics alike. The movie, which started as a rapid hit on Kickstarter, recently featured in the Director’s Fortnight portion of Cannes Film Festival and is now on its way to becoming a Hollywood feature movie.
Kung Fury writer, director, and star David Sandberg raised $630,000 when Kung Fury hit Kickstarter back in 2013, with the first $200,000 coming in the first 24 hours.
One month later, another $400,000 had been added. David Hasselhoff made a music video on YouTube tha's now pushing over 12 million views, and Sandberg has described the whole situation as "very surreal"
