Steve Sterling's International Submisions

About This Movie

So, 'Steve Sterling's International Submissions' is quite the spectacle, really. It’s almost like a continuation of the previous flick where Sterling, this muscle-bound champ, takes on some uniquely bizarre opponents. The atmosphere is a strange mix of camp and intensity, with live-action matches filmed in L.A. that just feel raw. There’s a certain charm in the way practical effects are utilized, especially during the grappling scenes. And you can't help but notice how the pacing keeps you on your toes, even if the performances sometimes veer into melodrama. It's definitely distinct, showcasing both the absurdity and the athleticism of its genre.

This film is part of a niche market, reflecting a specific time and place in sports entertainment history. The scarcity of original releases makes it a point of interest among collectors, as it represents a unique blend of live-action choreography and campy storytelling. Some formats have become quite collectible, especially those with limited runs or unique cover art. Fans of this genre appreciate its quirky charm, making it a curious conversation piece in any collection.
