From the Forum: Kris Interview Spoof

We at MovieViral have a great community on our forum. We have people from all over the world, of all ages, races, sex, and species. Well, maybe not that last one, unless you believe forum member Kris to be a prawn. Check out this video he created (with my help), using a clip from the District 9 trailer. Forum members will get the most kick out this, but I think it’s something everyone can enjoy.
