This is normally where we would write about what you're about to see, but the Guardians of the Galaxy "Inferno" video kind of defies explanations.

Promoting the home video release of a movie is usually a pretty yawn inducing exercise. Studios trot out some newly cut trailers, a press release or two goes around. Nothing too exciting.

Leave it to James Gunn to take home video promotion of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 to a whole new level.

All of the Guardians – minus voice actors Bradley Cooper and Vin Diesel – make an appearance here. Add a dash of David Hasselhoff and you have a music video for the ages. The addition of the grainy video look of something out of the 1970s and it is just about perfection.

Is it just me or are you ready for a short film based on this video? Do it in a mockumentry This is Spinal Tap fashion of this band and their one hit, and I'd be all in.

Yes, you would need to include Stan Lee as well.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 hits digital download on Aug. 8, and Blu-ray on Aug. 22.
