Director Biography - MarQ Morrison, Ren Morrison

Born and raised in the small redneck town of Bithlo, Florida the Morrison brothers were immersed in redneck culture. Wanting to flee, at an early age, they found their escape when they bought a beat up vhs camcorder at the Bithlo Mini Mall Thriftstore. Their interest in filmmaking was spawned and they went on to make 100s of "trailer park home movies". Watch some of the Trailer Home Movies on the website, www.FloridaBushLeagueWrestling.com

Director Statement

We made and forgot about this movie way back in 2001 before HD was even a thought. Some producer lady from Mighty Movies found the "master" mini-dv tapes and did a re-edit to our original. We must say we like it!

So the story goes - In 2017 a producer, from Mighty Movies, purchased a trailer home, in Bithlo Florida - discovering 40 mini-DV tapes stashed under a La-Z-Boy Recliner. She had lucked into the makings of an underground, cult wrestling classic.

"Your film is going to be a cult classic. I loved it and talked with some filmmakers who saw it. One guy said he laughed until he cried and wants it as a part of his personal collection." - Orlando Film Festival
