I know there’s a considerable audience for professional wrestling and its less-stage managed counterparts in the world of mixed martial arts and boxing, and on the whole, although I’m not particularly a fan of any of it, the ZRC doesn’t have an issue with consenting adults beating on each other to entertain their audience.

However, when the spectacle involved, even in a fictional combat situation, is used to stoke Anti-Undead prejudice, we have a problem, and that brings us to upcoming film ‘Monster Brawl’:

“Set in the tradition of a Pay-Per-View main event, comes a grotesque and hilarious fight to the death featuring a cast of eight classic combatants in all. Along with their colorful managers, these Monsters compete in visceral bloody combat in the ring to determine the most powerful monster of all time”

How, err, monstrous, if you’ll pardon the phrasing. Not only will this movie apparently glorify violence against the Undead, it does so in the name of black comedy and pits the Undead against various other Differently Animated sorts for the amusement of the in-movie and real life Living audiences. Judging from the trailer, it’s even supposed to make you laugh, definitely seeing itself as black comedy.

Very, very black and not-at-all funny ‘comedy’ to the ZRC’s mind.

We are of course disturbed and saddened by this development, and we think you will be too after seeing the trailer:
