Brute Force and Ignorance in the Backyard
Pros:
A shocking look into youth gone wild in America.
Cons:
Snippets as opposed to entire footage of these groups
The Bottom Line:
Despite turning me off in some ways, this and the other videos in the series are a must see... at least once.

Author's Review
These kids are literally insane. The movie features the bouts of amateur "fight clubs" put on in their own backyards across the country. These aspiring wrestlers put every brutal, high flying twist they can though on their favorite sport and the end result is shocking.
Although these kids do display some "real" wrestling moves and have obviously practiced long and hard to perfect them, it is the choice of weapons that sickens and shocks. Yes, I said weapons. In the "backyard" you see, anything goes. Barbed wire, lightbulbs, hacksaws, hammers, bricks and baseball bats wrapped in barbed wire, and I don't know how many kids I saw "power bombed" through flaming banquet tables and the like...
Dives off of roofs onto other wrestlers, fights on moving vehicles, ladder dives and many more creative ways to mame and destroy each other are featured throughout.
For the adrenaline junkie, or lovers of the "extreme" side of sport, these tapes are right on the money I guess. I personally found them a shocking statement on an angry unsupervised youth culture that almost sickened me. I was particularly disturbed at some of the footage where you actually see some adults in the background as spectators at these bloody events?
There is nothing quite like this out there that you will run across. This combination of the most extreme of extreme wrestling with the silicone enhanced "backyard babes" is sure to please any testosterone driven sports nut. The statement this video makes on just how twisted todays kids are was too hard for me though to ignore. It is one of those that in an almost sick way you might watch over and over again.
