To be fair, what were you expecting?

I became aware of this film after seeing clips on an episode of OSW Review. The appeal of the film begins and ends with; There's loads of wrestlers in it. Kurt Angle gets the most screen time as one would expect, but James Storm is also given a prominent role. It's a very slow, quiet film, which serves better as an ad for the natural beauty to be found in Pittsburgh than it does as a horror film. Kurt Angle is the only wrestler in the film who doesn't just play himself and as a result, ODB works the best out of all the cameos as a straight talking liquor store owner.

The novelty of wrestlers aside, the film has horrendous dialogue, stiff acting and a weak plot which fails to interest. I will say this though, I don't think I've ever seen a truck montage before...

Pretty bad

They must have been hoping the pro wrestlers would get people to watch it. TERRIBLE script. Movie jumped all over the place.

MONSTER TRUCKS VS. EVIL DRUID GODS

[nogodnomasters · 1/10 · 5 December 2018]

Unlikeable Mike (Kurt Angle) accidentally finds an ancient Druid Ruin necklace buried in monster truck country. He wears the necklace and is transformed into the equally unlikeable Thule seeking out 3 more ruin necklaces through carnage. Gunnar (James Storm) has one of the necklaces Thule needs.

The plot was confusing and didn't make any sense. In fact it still doesn't. American Druids? There is no character build up, which was just as well as no one can act in this film. The dialogue was the pits. Country western music mixed in with a tune from Anti-Flag. A tattooed woman with arms bigger than my thighs. YIKES! Worse than a Tempe video.

Parental Guide: No f-bombs or sex. Appears to be some brief mud wrestling nudity...another scene that didn't make much sense either.

What A Bomb!

DON'T BUY OR RENT THIS FILM! IT SUCKS SO BAD THAT I WOULD MUCH RATHER HAVE MY TEETH PULLED OUT THEN EVER SEE THIS FILM AGAIN! It's absolutely stupid! Why Kurt Angle would you ever agree to look like an idiot for taking this film's role? Kurt you're a great athlete and cool wrestler but please stay away from trash like this. I wonder what made you want to be in Sharknado 2 as well because these are two of the sorriest excuses for movies I've ever seen. I want my time back! The full hour this film has stolen away from my life! That's an hour I'm never going to get back and I'm very mad! The script writer should be fired and be blacklisted for a film as worse as this. Please stay away from this film! I give it a 0 out of 10.

Not great, but hot!
