:: Thrift Store Finds :: Thunder & Mud

Now this is a pure GEM. I remember picking this VHS up from a Blockbuster bargain bin maybe 8 years ago. I typically wouldn't try to pass this off as a "thrift store find," but it is so OBVIOUSLY in the same vein and ridiculous that I thought I should share it. (And had I lied to you and just said I got it at a thrift store, you wouldn't know any better...)

This video features the combination of what was most important in 1990: heavy metal music and women's mud wrestling. This is absolutely horrible.... in the best way. Just think... wrestling and then it goes into TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE 1990 skits with "dumb blondes" and a total jerk dude for a host. The idea of any political correctness is thrown out the window, obviously.

So I start writing this blog post and I think, I should find a screen shot online here somewhere. So I search for it and get directed to this Russian site, and I find the prize piece of YouTube...

Here is a clip from the VHS (the Russians apparently love it):

AND AND AND!!! I found a live performance of the lovely "Critical Mass" by Nuclear Assault.
