About The Calamari Wrestler DVD
In The Calamari Wrestler, this tentacled tackler is the hottest story in the Japanese sports press. The president of the Cho-Nippon wrestling team proposes a fixed match as a publicity stunt, but the honorable Calamari Wrestler will hear nothing of it. Wrongfully banned from the sport, he retreats to the Monhonji Temple to train and meditate. There, a young reporter tracks him down and begins to unravel his enigma. But the squid's problems are just beginning - treacherous businessmen, unrequited love, and the wrestling-ring menace of the Octopus Wrestler and the insectoid Squilla Boxer await!

Joy to the Weird
by Karl
A very soapy movie about a fallen pro wrestler's quest to reclaim his championship, and the woman who loves him.
And he's a squid.
This could've been a terrible, forgettable, hacky comedy, but it's more of a secret success. The secret is it's played totally straight. There is no winking to the camera, no one seems in on the joke. And that is why it works as a comedy. I'm still thinking about this movie, and can't wait to show it to all of my friends. Or at least my weird friends.
