Comedy
After years spent vanquishing evil in Dikay, out-of-work warrior Van Von Hunter (Yuri Lowenthal) finds himself trying to make things happen in Hollywood. But when two vindictive directors ruin his rep, he's forced overseas to Japan, where the locals really fall in love with him. Steven Calcote and Stuart J. Levy direct this tongue-in-cheek mockumentary about celebrity, fame and the power of hero worship.

At the dawn of the Second World War, Nazism was extending its grip over South America. The Golden Angel, a Mexican masked wrestler, was recruited by the Americans in order to flush out the spies of the Third Reich and put a stop to their nefarious schemes. The Golden Angel’s assignments, still classified Top Secret and therefore absent from the history books, even brought him to a pivotal confrontation with Hitler himself. Inspired by the spirit of classic mockumentaries such as Woody Allen’s ZELIG and Peter Jackson’s FORGOTTEN SILVER, the film takes viewers on a unique version of the fight against the Third Reich, joyfully erasing the border between fiction and reality for the viewers who, taken on this unique ride, can’t help but ask: did this really happen?Cursed Violent People
