Wrestling horror Dark Match is now streaming on Shudder and, to celebrate, here's a brand new clip of star and wrestling icon Chris Jericho (Terrifier 2) to get you ready for the ring.
From director Lowell Dean, of Wolfcop fame, Dark Match also stars in Dark Match are Ayisha Issa (Transplant), Steven Ogg (The Walking Dead,Westworld), Sara Canning (The Vampire Diaries), Michael Eklund (The Call) and Jonathan Cherry (Goon).
A small-time wrestling company accepts a well-paying gig in a backwoods town only to learn, too late, that the community is run by a mysterious cult leader with devious plans for their match.
In our review of Dark Match, Jordan Hoffman teases “something truly bonkers” going down towards the end of Dark Match, so you'll have to tune in and see exactly what he's referring to.
Today's new clip sees The Prophet (Jericho) welcome wrestling fans to his Satanic wrestling forum. Speaking to The Takedown on SI, who debuted the clip exclusively earlier today, Jericho talked about the differences between working on a movie set and getting in the pro-wrestling ring:
“You learn a little bit about everything, as far as how to be on camera, whether it's live, or whether it's behind the scenes, or whether it's you doing 10 takes of something. You really do learn from that experience. But (films), it's a different world, so you really have to go in a lot of new ways from enunciating to 1000s of people in an arena, to basically one person in your scene and the camera. That's a whole different style of acting. All of those things help, though and I think being in this business for as long as I have, it's a real great foundation to take your acting skills to other places.”
