Primary
Kung Fury is a highly stylized action-comedy that parodies 1980s genre tropes. Its central conflict, while involving a historical villain, is treated with extreme camp and humor, making it primarily an apolitical exercise in genre homage and absurdism rather than a vehicle for specific political ideology.
Kung Fury features a predominantly white cast, consistent with the 1980s action movie genre it parodies. The narrative celebrates traditional white, male action hero archetypes through satire, without engaging in any critique of these identities or incorporating explicit DEI themes.
Secondary
The film features two female characters, Barbarianna and Katana, who are depicted using melee weapons, specifically swords, to defeat multiple male Nazi soldiers in direct physical combat during the final battle.
Kung Fury does not include any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative is entirely focused on its over-the-top action, comedic elements, and homage to 1980s pop culture, without engaging with queer identity in any capacity.
Kung Fury is an original film featuring characters created specifically for this production. There is no prior source material, historical record, or previous installment from which characters' genders could have been established and subsequently changed.
