10 Legitimately Good Acting Performances By Pro Wrestlers In Movies
7. Kane As Jacob Goodnight (See No Evil)
Kane may not look like a bona fide movie star from first glance, but his appearance alone makes him the perfect monster villain in any horror movie. Over 15 years removed from his WWE debut, Kane is still terrifying audiences to this day, regardless of whether he's sporting his mask or not. When WWE Studios started up in in the early 2000s, one of its first films was "See No Evil" starring Kane as Jacob Goodnight. He was well cast for the role and was probably one of the film's few highlights. In comparison to other classic horror movies, "See No Evil" was forgettable at best, but it was easily one of the better productions from WWE Studios. Kane as Jacob Goodnight made the movie worth watching and the best part about his role was that he didn't have to change his appearance much at all. He already had the intimidating presence that has made him a mainstay in WWE since the Attitude Era, so he played his part to perfection. Kane will be reprising his role as Jacob Goodnight in "See No Evil 2", a sequel set for a direct-to-DVD release this October.
