The Ken Wong Memorial Choir
From Intelligent Shit Music
Possibly proof that ISM has been alive in us all since the day we were born, Ken Wong Memorial Choir were active exclusively in 2002, yet their legacy lives on</br> </br>
The film: Ken Wong - An American Hero
The Memorial choir were formed to create songs for Schlock's sixth form film project about Ken Wong, a brave kamikaze pilot in the 2nd world war who, through no fault of his own, misses out on flight training and ends up unable to fly his plane. Overshooting Pearl Harbour, he crashes into a barn full of flour where his face is turned permanently white.</br> </br> Found by the FBI they believe Wong to be a heavily undercover American Operative who was saving Pearl Harbour from the evil Japanese and is celebrated as a war hero. He leads a happy life until one day the CIA find out his true identity and assassinate him.</br> </br> The film was a failure, rejected by tutors, and replaced with Project Hades, the story of an island with '3000 godzillas plus Jurassic Park'. Again, this was rejected and replaced by The Shape, a psychological horror in the style of Sixth Sense about a shape so terrifying you died as soon as you saw it. Needless to say this too was rejected and the final project was some really dull film noir shit. Oh well.</br> </br>
