Pro-Wrestlers
Vs Zombies (2014), a low budget flick directed by Cody Knotts is
exactly what it sounds like pitting the late 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper,
Kurt Angle, Matt Hardy, 'Hacksaw' Jim Duggan, former ECW World
Champion 'The Franchise' Shane Douglas against a horde of the undead
in a bloodfest only Troma could deliver. If you're a fan of
wrestling and zombies, then this may be your dream movie.
After
Shane "The Franchise" Douglas accidentally kills a fellow
wrestler in the ring, the deceased wrestler's brother Angus (Ashton
Amherst) decides to take matters into his own hands by summoning an
ancient demon to seek revenge. He's granted the power of necromancy
and Angus wastes no time in tricking Shane and Rowdy Roddy Piper into
traveling to a remote location by promising them money in return for
a personal appearance. Once there, Shane and Roddy must fight their
way through hordes of flesh-eating zombies and stop Angus before he
takes his revenge any further.
Presented
in 1.78 X 1 1080p digital high definition and a lossy Dolby Digital
5.1 track, the film looks and sounds fine on Blu-ray but doesn't
benefit as many bigger budgeted films would due to its low production
equipment. Why no lossless sound?
Extras
include...
Intro
by Lloyd Kaufman
Director's
Commentary
Theatrical

Exclusive
Tromatic Extras
All
in all, if you're not a wrestling fan, you may not be too blown away
by the film but it still manages to be campy fun with some pretty
good Zombie kills thrown into the mix.
