A sweded film is the sumarised recreation of popular films using limited budgets and a camcorder. The process is called sweding and upon completion the film has been sweded.
Origins: In the Michel Gondry film Be Kind, Rewind (2008), the character Jerry accidentally erase the videotapes at Mos Def's video rental store, and the pair remake all the films themselves. These versions become popular with customers, who are told they take longer to arrive and cost more because they come from Sweden, hence the term 'sweded'.
After watching sweded films on YouTube, I found these to be the ones I enjoyed most:
A good films to swede would be Mean Girls, as it is set in a school which is where we will be filming, it is well known and requires very little props.
