4.0 out of 5 stars Great Detroit Mat Stars, December 15, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: I Like to Hurt People [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Anyone remember the C.G. London wrestling magazines with all the bloody faces? Anyone who remembers that era of the mat sport will love this video, with great footage of The Sheik, a terrible yet terrifying wrestler with an incredible bloodlust like none ever displayed in a ring--it's amazing what he got away with in those days in terms of sheer violence with tearing his foes apart, literally. Also: young Abby the Butcher and Dusty Rhodes; midgets; and great interviews by Abdullah Farouk and the vastly underrated Eddie Creachman. Only drawback: The worst music soundtrack in the history of recorded film or tape. The song "I Like To Hurt People" seems to have been sung by a lead vocalist who sounds suspiciously like "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff. Listen and see if you don't agree!

5.0 out of 5 stars The B movie of wrestling but its great !!!, November 26, 2005

This review is from: I Like to Hurt People [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I am glad I found this on amazon and that people had already wrote responses. Obivously these comments were written by true wrestling fans. If wrestling made movies this no doubt would be a B movie classic like Plan 9 From Out Of Space. The music is classic you have to actually listen to the lyrics of the title track I Like To Hurt People its great.

They have a wide variety of old school superstars. Andre, The Shiek and The Grand Wizard his manager, Bobo Brazil and so many more. Then there were guys I never heard of. What ever happened to the Captain ?

There are nothing but complements from me in regards to this movie so if you havent seen it you are really missing out. If you have seen it you know what I mean. Find that friend who has never seen this movie and make them watch it.

They will love it

4.0 out of 5 stars STOP THE SHEIK!, January 15, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: I Like to Hurt People [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This film, which is part fiction and part documentary, takes us back to the days of Bigtime Wrestling based in Detroit. If you are looking for rare footage of The Sheik, Abdullah The Butcher, The Funks, and Andre The Giant this is required viewing. This tape is not for everyone. Detroit wrestling was EXTREMELY violent, and the blood does flow in I Like To Hurt People. Among the film's highlights; television interviews with a 28 year old Dusty Rhodes, the late Abdullah Farouk (The WWF's Grand Wizard), and the legendary Bobo Brazil.
