“Wrestling is such a brutal business, it doesn’t surprise people that it attracts sociopaths, fame whores, coke whores and adrenaline whores, but why did it attract an artist?” asks Billy Corgan, frontman for the Smashing Pumpkins and wrestling promoter. Nevermore: The Raven Effect examines the pivotal shift in wrestling history, through the eyes of Raven/Scott Levy, a brilliant, inventive, complicated and controversial performer. To those in the know, the ECW was an extreme and hazardous wrestling circuit that featured bloody matches, often involved real weapons, and bonkers story angles. Raven was instrumental in setting the no-holds-barred tone of ECW and influencing the direction of wrestling culture in the process. Now approaching sixty, Nevermore is a look back at an era when an extreme personality thrived in an extreme environment - the only question is, how did he live to tell the tale?
Directed by Geordie Day.
