In the new movie BE KIND, REWIND, Jack Black and Mos Def create their own no-budget remakes of famous films to rent at their struggling video store. Because they claim the movies are from Sweden, these are known as the “Sweded” versions. Because the Internet is full of creative pop-culture nuts looking for an outlet for their moviemaking abilities, genuine homemade Sweded versions of movies have begun to flood You Tube. Here’s a sample, a wonderfully offbeat take on BACK TO THE FUTURE. 

I really like the imaginative way they accomplished the special effect of Marty’s hand disappearing, but I have one question: Where the heck did these guys get their hands on an actual De Lorean?

If you want to see Sweded versions of other classics, including DIE HARD, STAR WARS and LORD OF THE RINGS, just click here.
