What is a Sweded Film?

A definition I found on Urban Dictionary is 'The summarized recreation of popular pop-culture films using limited budgets and a camcorder' and another from Know Your Meme is 'Sweded Films are amateur recreations of famous films using limited resources and technology inspired by the 2008 comedy film Be Kind Rewind. The films are typically much shorter in length than their originals and use shoe-string budget props to mimic the source material.'

The blog Sweded Cinema displays these requirements for sweded films:

  1. Must be based on an already produced film
  2. Range 2-8 minutes in length
  3. Must not contain computer generated graphics
  4. Based on films less than 35 years old
  5. Special effects must be limited to camera tricks
    and arts 'n crafts
  6. Sound effects created by human means
  7. Hilarious.
