The George A. Romero Foundation (GARF) will be hosting a Reunion Party on Wednesday, evening March 3, 2021 via the organization’s webcast network, featuring the original cast and crew. VisitGARF for updates!

Created long before professional wrestling embraced the moniker sports entertainment, and filmed nearly 15 years after the airing of John Stossel’s 20/20 TV special which debated the profession’s authenticity, this male soap opera explores professional wrestling’s sensationalism, and foreshadows the television genre now referred to as Reality TV.

The six time World Heavyweight Champion Sid Eudy (ring name Sid Vicious/Sycho Sid) of WCW and WWE fame, will be joining the webcast to share his reflections on the realities and demands of life in the ring during the sport’s heyday.

Directed by George A. Romero and filmed in his trademark unapologetic style, “Iron City Asskickers” plays as a promotional video centered on the untamed and unregulated amateur wrestling circuit of the late 1990s. The short film written by Jason Bareford, will find its final home in the Cryptic Pictures company archives, now housed at the University of Pittsburgh Library System’s Horror Studies Collection.
