A documentary on the late Terry Brunk, a.k.a. ‘Sabu,’ will premiere next month.
The doc, directed by Joe Clarke, will stream on virtual cinema streamer Kinema beginning on Monday, September 15.
Following Sabu’s journey to his final match, the film traces his storied upbringing under the influence of The Sheik, through the electrifying days of ECW, to the closing chapter of his in-ring career. Along the way, Sabu reflects on his evolution as a performer and the extreme style that defined his legacy.
From personal challenges and career-threatening injuries to moments of triumph, SABU gives an unflinching look at the realities of professional wrestling, the chaos, artistry, and physical toll of a career that blurred the line between performance and sacrifice.
Filming was ongoing when Brunk died unexpectedly this past May at 61, and three weeks after wrestling Joey Janela at GCW’s Spring Break.
The documentary lists Rob Van Dam as a producer.
