There is no such thing as too much neon.
Actor, musician, and cultural icon David Hasselhoff has released a music video in support of his contribution to the Kung Fury soundtrack, “True Survivor.” As the film pays homage to absurd and outrageous action movies of the 1980’s, so too does True Survivor represent the most absurd of 1980’s soundtrack music videos, as Hasselhoff is inserted into the world of the film.
There is a lot to love about this video as a child of the 80’s, from the white Lamborghini to the pink neon, but nothing is greater than Hasselhoff. Say what you will about his talent, you cannot argue his commitment. He totally sells the song’s utterly nonsense lyrics with every dramatic pose and determined stare. Were it not for that new Star Wars trailer, this would be the most amazing thing you saw today.
Kung Fury tells the story of a rogue ninja cop who quits the police force to fight the greatest Kung Fu master of all time, Adolph Hitler. Funded through a Kickstarter campaign early in 2014, the short film will premiere on YouTube May 28. Hasselhoff’s “True Survivor” is available on Spotify and can be purchased on iTunes for $1.29.
