Movies in Minutes with Gene Jackson: Episode #2 – I LIKE TO HURT PEOPLE (1985)

On this episode, Gene Jackson reviews one of the most chaotic, violent, and oddly historic wrestling “movies” ever made:


I LIKE TO HURT PEOPLE – a 1985 VHS-era oddity that’s part documentary, part fever dream, and all vintage Detroit madness.

Originally meant to be a horror flick titled Ringside in Hell, this thing got Frankensteined together from mid-70s wrestling footage, bonus footage from 1984, and a storyline about banning The Sheik from wrestling. What we got instead? A cult classic full of blood, promos, and pure territory wrestling gold.

Featuring:
• The Sheik (Ed Farhat) stabbing people with no remorse!
• Dusty Rhodes, Terry Funk, Andre the Giant, Bobo Brazil & more!
• Managers screaming, blood pouring, and 300 lb. Heather Feather demanding to wrestle a man!
• Behind-the-scenes stories about the movie’s wild production
• And yes... Andre trying to say “Are you talking to Andre?” 17 times

It's not really a movie...it's not really a documentary...it's a glorious mess

Let's talk about it!
