If you thought that John Cena made some poor movie choices, then you better strap in for this man.

Hulk Hogan brazenly attempted to make his way into the Hollywood system, appearing in multiple films, most of which were utterly absurd, embarrassing and downright awful. No Holds Barred is comparatively one of his tamer projects, which says a lot, as this bombastic and absurd title is filled to the brim with weird decisions and zany energy.

This film tells the story of Rip Thomas - played by Hulk - the champion of the WWF, who is placed into a rivalry with a former convict named Zeus after a TV network executive seeks revenge after Rip turned down a chance to work with him.

No Holds Barred's weak plot is not helped by the absolute level of absurdity that accompanies it. Some of the ridiculous highlights include attempting to make Hulk Hogan sexy, a genuine electrocution scene, the strange decision to change Hulk's name when he's basically just playing himself and an utterly infamous sequence where Hogan scares a hired goon so much that he poops his pants, and Hulk responds with, "Dookie?".
