Product Description

You've seen it on your computer screen and now it's time for the big screen. TV Screen, that is. Witness the pure digital video magic of non-stop action, hijinks and truly bad acting in one of the few truly great works of art still made in America. As a bonus, you'll also feel a lot better about yourself afterwards.

5.0 out of 5 stars I made this DVD, February 11, 2004
By Todd Roy (San Jose, CA United States) - See all my reviews
Hi my names Todd and I made the KWOON DVD (so I had to give it 5 Stars) I wanted to try and convince you to buy this by making you a promise: It will not be the worst DVD you own. It may not be the best...but I can promise it won't be the worst. Consider that when you watch KWOON, you we see us fight the Grim Reaper, a Mummy and even the Mob. "My Gosh...in one DVD?" you ask. YES!!! And a lot more! Now I know most of you have never heard of us and you may just want to go buy Pirates of the Caribbean and thats cool, but I don't see Johnny Depp here talking to you...do you know why? He does not like you. We at KWOON on the other hand love and cherish you, hoping you'll give our show a chance. Well, thanks for your time and now I must head back to work mowing lawns.

4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Fun, March 7, 2004
By A Customer
"Direct to Video" is a term that still has a stigma associated with it. Usually it means bad movies.

The same can't be said for KWOON however. This direct to DVD series of shorts are a surprisingly funny, taught and, yes, sometimes well acted series. KWOON also excels in its production design and cinematography. This isn't a college thesis project; instead it's an honest to goodness attempt at making a story worth watching. And they succeed.

The DVD features several "extras" including writer/producer/actor/director Todd Roy visiting a Kung Fu tournament in China. His off the wall humor is quick and merciless, but never at anyone's expense but himself.

The KWOON DVD is something to watch....Todd Roy is someone to watch for.

5.0 out of 5 stars I had doubts, but they are now gone, April 15, 2004
By Scott (Emerald Hills, CA United States) - See all my reviews
I will say this, I laughed out loud many times. I'm not part of the KWOON folks, but caught a review of the DVD on Cinescape and figured I would give it a shot. Normally I don't go for indie films, but you guys changed my mind. For those of you reading this, take it from me and give the DVD a shot. Its packed with great bonus materials too that are fricken funny. That dude Todd is a crack up and I got a kick out of how much effort all of you put into making your movies. THis is something I wish I could have done. Great DVD Great Show. It now sits on the top of my DVD shelf. Kudos to all of you.
