Indeed. There are a lot of little touches you'd like -- nods to wrestling history and culture that are cool and not really forced at all. Even the wrestling lingo feels natural.
I saw Shivers a while back, and it was kind of strange. Admittedly, you have to expect that from Cronenberg. But it was a nice twist on the usual zombie flick. He always knows how to mess with something, and then manages to get something that will mess with you even more.

I REALLY need to pick up The Wrestler. I don't know why I haven't seen that yet - I have no excuse.
