Kung Fury is a 30-minute crowd-funded 80s action comedy about a kung fu cop who travels back in time to kill Hitler, packed with retro tropes.

Fits right into Kung Fury [1] - a parody/homage of 80's movies that includes time travel and Hackerman... And a dinosaur, vikings and nazis and David Hasselhoff. It's as bad as it sounds, but in a good way. They fit an impressive amount of 80's movie tropes into 30 minutes. [VIDEO]
