THE LAST VILLAINS, MAD DOG & THE BUTCHER

Alternately hard-hitting, grin-inducing and heart-wrenching, this tall tale of a documentary presents a different kind of family saga, unfolding chapter by chapter in true storybook fashion. The film’s battered but unbroken protagonist is Paul “The Butcher” Vachon, the last living member of a Canadian wrestling dynasty whose members have been loved and hated in equal measure by fans around the world for decades.

Director Thomas Rinfret followed Paul, camera in hand, for four years, crisscrossing North America along the way, as Paul delivered a jaw-dropping first-person account of his wrestling feats of yesteryear and his many outlandish adventures during the course of a life that has been anything but humdrum.
