The Untold True Story of THE KARATE KID - Parody Short Film

View fullsize

I’ve got an incredibly amusing video for you to watch inspired by classic film The Karate Kid. This is a parody short that tells us the true story of Daniel Larusso that inspired the film. The video was sent to us, and it came with the following note: 

In 1983, a senior at West valley high filmed his final school year. What he captured would inspire one of the greatest movies of the 1980's. This is the true story of the real....Karate Kid.

The video was created by Joseph Vincent and he goes on to explain how he pulled it off:

“I took all the behind the scenes footage I could, the rehearsal videos, and cut them together to tell a new story that I wrote about Johnny. I brought in some of my friends to do Voice Over for me (big thanks to them) and edited it all together to create this mockumentary. I hope you enjoy it.”

The project turned out awesome, and if you’re a fan of this movie, you’re going to love this.
