Krod Mandoon Sorcerer Makes Box Office Sizzle

Kevin Hart’s new movie, “Think Like a Man Too,” was number one at the box office this past weekend. Movie critics are celebrating Hart as the next Hollywood sensation. Personally, I think the praise is deserved. Hart is funny, good-looking and basically inimitable.

I will always think of Kevin Hart as the not-so-talented sorcerer Zezelryck in the cult favorite “Krod Mandoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire.”

“Krod Mandoon” was a 2009 six-episode cooperative effort between BBC2 and Comedy Central. You can watch it on your favorite video streaming service, and, if you have a certain sick sense of humor and/or a love for Kevin Hart, you definitely should watch it.

Krod Mandoon is a stunningly funny parody of every epic fantasy story ever told. Don’t watch it if are easily offended, because this series goes out of its way to offend everyone.

However, if you want to see Kevin Hart before he was dominating Hollywood, or if you want to know how a roving band of freedom fighters protects the land from the evil Chancellor Dongalor and Emperor Xanus (say that one aloud), you need to watch Krod Mandoon.
