Whats everyone favorite bad movie with a pro wrestler in it? There is Hulk Hogan's No Holds Barred, Rowdy Roddy Piper Hell Comes to Frog Town, I dont count They Live because that is great IMHO. Actually No Holds Barred and Hell Comes To Frog Town are so bad they are good

Santa's Slay (2005) with Bill Goldberg kicking ass, and Half Past Dead 2 (2007) with Bill Goldberg getting his ass kicked.

Slash Dance (1989) - no not the Fulci thing by the same name, this little cheapy is only available in the Night Chills 10 movie pack.  It features several of the girls from the Gorgeous Ladies Of Wrestling (GLOW) from the mid-eighties.  Cindy Ferda (Americana) stars as a detective investigating murders at dance studio.  Wall-to-wall spandex;  it's a cryin' shame the video quality on the DVD is so poor   Bluesad

This is one of those movies where you can immedialty tell if you're going to like it or not based on the box art.

Santa With Muscles, starring Hulk Hogan immediately comes to mind.

Body Slam, starring Rowdy Roddy Piper as well. Body Slam co-stars Tanya Roberts and Kellie Martin and Dirk Benedict. Horrible.

See No Evil, starring Kane, from the WWE.

On a side note, The Rock has a very successful career in movies. I enjoyed all his performances in film, but DOOM is bad outside of the rest. But, it IS a video game based film, so it's bad from the start.

Abraxas, Guardian of the Universe with Jesse Ventura. Sadly some people don't see the (unintentional) humor in that one *looking at Jack*  Wink

This scene could be straight out of a Zucker Brothers movie:

I guess I gotta be the one to mention it:
Ready to Rumble
Small | Large


Although, I don't know if this 'counts.'  It doesn't 'star' any particular wrestler in a huge role, but it's A.) About wrestling, B.) Financed in part by a wrestling company, and C.) Cameos various pro wrestlers in featured roles, including: Dallas Page, Sting, Goldberg, Perry Saturn, Sid Vicious, "Mean" Gene Okerlund, and Bam Bam Bigelow, amongst others. 

But, one could also mention
The Chaperone, starring WWE star Triple H Buggedout

Dark Rising (2007) - some people are out camping in the woods and they get attacked by a ghoul from...another dimension?  I really don't know where he comes from.  Anyhow, one of the campers is played by pro wrestler Jay Reso, who goes by the name Christian in the ring.

There's a whole bunch of films starring El Santo, Blue Demon and Mil Mascaras from Mexico. A lot of them are cheesy fun though what with the wrestlers tackling monsters such as vampires, werewolves, demented midgets as well as their in-ring villains on occasion.

The more recent Enter...Zombie King (2003) (AKA: Zombie Beach Party), a direct to video movie, is perhaps an even more amped up cheesefest having luchadore grapplers battling zombies who happen to be controlled by the villainous wrestler the Zombie King. Jim "the Anvil" Nedihart makes a cameo in this one as a sheriff. This one has to be seen to be believed. I suspect bad movies fans would likely love this as it mixes in beach party elements, surf music by the Tijuana Bibles, some gratituous nudity and lots of gore (albeit mostly unconvincing).

Actually I consider most pro wrestling movies that are actually about wrestling itself to be surprisingly good (the worst would probably be the aforementioned Ready to Rumble and No Holds Barred although they do have some definite cheese appeal, especially NHB. Hmm I think there's another thread there...

Piper has done a few other bad films not yet mentioned here including Sci-fighters, Immortal Combat, Marked Man, Last To Surrender and Terminal Rush to name but a few...

And oh yeah, who could forget Hulk Hogan in a pink tutu?
