Sweep The Leg!

Pop Candy posted about the triumphant return of perennial ‘80s movie villain William Zabka:

In their new single, Sweep the Leg [check out the video!], a band called No More Kings pays tribute to the Karate baddie, and Zabka willfully plays along. The whole thing must be seen to be believed: Directed by Zabka himself, the epic brings Johnny, Martin Kove (Cobra Kai) and Ralph Macchio into a present-day scenario and even features a cameo by Dennis Haskins (Mr. Belding from Saved by the Bell). At one point, Zabka and Kove reenact the pivotal scene from the original film.

The song was decent, but I really enjoyed the video, for obvious reasons. I had no idea that Zabka had done so much (and was nominated for an Oscar!) since his movie roles in the ’80s. Keep an eye out for some other (minor) cameos…
