My love hate with K-40

While I wasn't terribly impressed with Survival or Polish Vampire (from a lighting point of view), Kung Fu Rascals is nothing short of amazing. I have an old VHS of it around and I sometimes throw in the player just to remind myself how good K40 super 8 can look when someone really puts their mind to it.

Survival and Vampire have some good examples of "outdoor" lighting, aka the sun with a blue sky as the background.

Kung Fu used K-40 for it's interiors and as I recall looked pretty darn good.
