Wrestlemaniac (2006)

For myself, this is one of those "Why Didn't I Think of That" movies. Want the synopsis? Here's the synopsis. A group of young "filmmakers" and "actresses" head on down to Mexico to shoot an "adult-themed" "film." Trouble brews when a mystical Mexican luchador (or professional wrestler) starts ripping their faces off. I'm gonna leave you with some pictures. Quite a few, actually. If they don't make you want to watch Wrestlemaniac, there's just no hope for you.

Just so you don't spend a great deal of time wondering, yes, that is #13 from Deal or No Deal (a.k.a. Leyla Milani). She plays Dallas, an energetic little porn star with a knack for car mechanics. She's actually the third most famous person (as far as I'm concerned) in this straight-to-DVD horror flick.


Before we get too far, let me point out the
Best Opening Title Sequence Ever Recorded In Film History.
Old Mexican wrestling footage while this weird song plays over them.
Oh yeah.


Irwin Keyes (The Warriors, Intolerable Cruelty) plays The Stranger who wisely advises the crew not to venture down that road. He's really the reason I checked out this movie. I'm really glad I did because it was an entertaining eighty minutes. Too bad Keyes is only apart of five of them.

This is Rey Misterio Sr.
Father of Rey Misterio Jr.
Trainer of Rey Misterio Jr.
Trainer of Psicosis (my favorite wrestler of all-time).
Cool, huh?

Okay, sorry this is so boring. Let's get to the good stuff.

FACE RIPPING!
RIPPED OFF FACES PUT ON THE WALL FOR REASONS RELATING TO DECOR!!!

Sweet damn, this is a fun movie.

Whitney and I watched Dark Star at this awesome Midnight Movie Triple Feature with Explorers and Aliens.

I've heard of máscara contra máscara matches, but this is ridiculous.
