    ARRRRRRG

    What a horrible, awful movie. I saw it at Blockbuster and thought 'Wow, a movie about backyard wrestling! Excellent!' And it went downhill from there. Words alone can't describe my disappointment. How appropriate that it stars a Power Ranger, because it makes it feel even more like an episode gone awry. I just don't understand....the guys who do this for real do more painful-looking stuff than in this movie. Why couldn't the actors/stuntmen at least make SOME of the offense look somewhat dangerous? I won't even get into the awful love triangle, because it's not even worth talking about. Save the only film appearance by Hayabusa that I'm aware of, this movie is a complete throwaway. Not even worth a rental. If you get it offered to you for free, ask if you can have something else instead. >

    Bad, but not as bad as Manos

    I would give this movie a 1 every day of the week, but I believe that Manos, the Hands of Fate deserves to be undisputed as #1 on the worst movie ever list. Therefore, I gave it a 2, only because its not as bad as Manos. Don't get me wrong, this movie is absolutely terrible, but I would not wish Manos on my worst enemy.

    How this movie impacted my life for the better.

    I just saw this movie a week or so ago and I must admit that I am a changed man because of it. I have been struggling to be a nudist painter for the last eight years, and I was beginning to lose hope. After seeing this breath-taking film, I have recaptured that passion by which by which my original dream was guided. I thank the makers of this film for what they have done in my life.

    Worse than Hitler

    I'd heard about this movie, but never had any intention of watching it. Then one day, I'm at the video store, browsing through the no art DVDs, and there it is, shining with it's $1.49 price tag, screaming "I suck, buy me!" I figure "What the hell." I'm a huge wrestling fan, it can't be that bad right? So I get home, put the disc in and lay down to watch the movie. Less than three minutes later I realize there's no way in hell I can watch this thing alone, this coming from a man who has sat through practically every blaxploitation film ever made.

    Somehow I managed to convince my friends that we should spend our Saturday night watching a poorly made, straight to video movie about backyard wrestling, instead of going out and having fun like normal people. It was a decision we would all come to regret.

    This movie is bad. And I mean BAD. Backyard Dogs is so awful I had to consult a thesaurus in order to properly describe it. This movie is abominable, atrocious, fallacious, sinful, and horrendous. I don't know how anyone involved in this "film" can live with themselves. They deserve to be shunned by society, and live out the rest of their lives in shame. I've seen better movies at work on safety training.

    Backyard Dogs is so bad I think it might just qualify as obscenity.

    I laughed, i cried, i nearly committed suicide

    I just watched this movie to see how it compares to "Manos".... This movie was he scariest movie I've ever seen, it made me slit my wrists, the movie had so many SH*TTY moments that it makes you want to end your life. This movie also made me laugh, I laughed while i was on my couch with my wrists bleeding going "yes the pain will be over soon". I cried when the movie started, I was crying because My eyes were being raped by the scary images that this movie made. I was also crying because this was the only thing on TV, and i couldn't find this remote, and it was edited for TV, if your going to make a movie that is as bad as this, you should not edit it for TV, you should let America see this movie to know how many dumb people actually live in LA

      When Cole and Lee meet Hayabusa in the limo, it's quite obviously raining in the window behind Cole and Lee. But in the windows on either side of Hayabusa, it's a dry, sunny day.
