Rating: Summary: Old School Review: Okay, first off, for all the people who think this is a new "from the vault" or "ultimate collection", you are far from the truth. As most people claim to be Undertaker fans, they have to realize that there was a very stale period in WWE(F) history. This dvd represents that. It was not only a bad time for the industry, but a terrible time for home videos. Until recently, with the additions of the "from the vault"s and the "ultimate colleciton"s, WWE home video was horrible (for the most part). This is a mere glimpse into the past of the deadman. I can't wait until he gets his own "anthology", until then, we all have to deal with a lackluster dvd and our memory of the great matches he put on in his prime.
Rating: Summary: Deadman Walkin' Review: This DVD is a remastered release of an old VHS tape, or so I've heard. Included here are five matches, and although they aren't exactly classics (except Undertaker vs. Undertaker, perhaps), they do give you a taste of what the Old School Undertaker was all about. If you were a fan back when he was the Deadman and would like a dive down nostalgia lane, OR, if you enjoyed his recent return as the Deadman at WrestleMania XX and want more, then by all means pick this up. The Undertaker vs. The Undertaker is worth it alone.My review for each match: 1) The Undertaker vs. The Undertaker: Wrestling-wise, this match is passable. Storyline-wise, this match is very good. The story behind this match is that the real Taker (with Paul Bearer) was put out of action by Yokozuna in a casket match, and disappeared for a couple of months as a result. Later, the Million Dollar Man claims that he'd found the Deadman, and eventually does bring him back to the then-WWF... only it was obvious that this new Taker was a fake. Paul Bearer retaliates and challenges Ted's Taker by offering to bring the REAL Taker back at Summerslam. Ted Dibiase and the Faker Taker accepts the challenge, and the rest is history (and on this disc). 2) The Undertaker vs. Kwang: I don't remember much about this guy, so I assume that this was just your average RAW match up. Kwang might remind you of today's Tajiri, though, with what his kicks and his mist. Wrestling-wise, it's a good filler type match. 3) The Undertaker vs. Yokozuna: The casket rematch of the original bout that put Undertaker out of action. In that match, Yoko gave Undertaker a beatdown, but couldn't put him into the casket for the win. Almost all of the heels backstage came out to help Yoko put Taker out of his misery, and they succeeded. Fast forward to Taker's return, and we have a rematch on our hands. Actor Chuck Norris makes a cameo in this match as Taker's enforcer, and his job is to make sure the heels don't come down to the ring and force history to repeat itself. Wrestling-wise, it's not bad, but not great either. The late Yokozuna does a good job of being terrified of the casket, so props (and RIP) to him. 4) The Undertaker vs. Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart: Another filler match. Match itself is OK, and the part at the end where Neidhart is knocked into the open casket is hilarious. Good to see the late Owen Hart again also (RIP). However, I have to wonder why this match was placed after the Taker/Yoko rematch, when it was obvious that that particular match took place after this one (the commentators mention about the "upcoming casket match" once or twice, and Owen himself states twice that Yoko was going to "bury the Undertaker alive!"). Oh, well. No biggie. 5) The Undertaker vs. Jerry "The King" Lawler: Video/DVD exclusive. This match is short, but sweet. This is another casket match, and it's quite hilarious to see Lawler run around trying to avoid the inevitable. Lawler's cowardly expressions are priceless, and he makes this match a joy to see. Taker here is, of course, vintage Deadman. There's a subtle but obvious theme to this disc... except for the Kwang bout, every match has had the Undertaker's casket appear, and three of them used to "bury" his opponents (vs. Faker Taker, vs. Yokozuna, vs. The King). I suppose this would be the reason why the then-WWF chose these particular matches. In anycase, at the very cheap price, this DVD is a must-buy if you're an Old School Taker fan. Enjoy!
Rating: Summary: The Undertaker rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Review: This dvd is going to be great for any Undertaker fan
Rating: Summary: This is not a new DVD Review: This DVD is simply a release from a home video from 1994. Don't be dissapointed in WWE releasing a new DVD like this. This DVD is simply a teaser for fans who might not know about the Dead Undertaker and only started watching wrestling in the last 2 years. Expect a new Undertaker DVD to come out probably in June or July. The WWE probably wants to add his latest storyline with Kane to the DVD which is why nothing new has come out on DVD yet.
Rating: Summary: UnderFaker: He Carries this DVD Review: This DVD is, plain and simple, an Undertaker DVD. It's NOT a documentary, and by NO MEANS is it a "best 'Taker matches ever" DVD. What it is, however, is a remastered version of a 1994 VHS package. It features five of the Dead Man's matches from a very short period of time in 1994(it is so obvious that the matches were filmed only weeks apart from each other,they are shown in random order, aparently to fool the viewers!). These are the matches shown on the DVD: *(Paul Bearer's)Undertaker vs.(Ted DiBiase's)Undertaker Depending on who you ask, this Match is one of the best(or worst) Of the real Undertaker's(the one accompanied by Bearer) life.I personally liked the match, but many didn't because of it's somewhat slow pace(if you don't like average-speed matches,this DVD is NOT FOR YOU. If you like break-neck-fast matches, go buy a Rey Mysterio DVD or somthing). It is a cool match, because these guys fight exactly like each other. Of course, the real Undertaker wins. Highlights of this match are: *Vince McMahon and Jerry Lawler's commentary. This match is a now-rare chance to hear Vinnie Mac's commentary. *The real 'Taker's entrance. Although it would probably look cheesy to today's audience, the Undertaker had the most frightening entrance of any wrestler ever. And Paul Bearer's theatrics don't stop it from being scary. *Paul Bearer's acting. At one point of the match, Bearer tell's the Fakertaker "It's OOOOOOOOOVER for you! It's ALLLLLLL OOOOOOOOVER for you!" *The ending. The Uderfaker has the 'Taker upside-down for a Tombstone piledriver, but Taker, using sheer will-power, forces them to flip positions! The next match on the DVD is: *Casket match:Yokozuna vs. Undertaker A quicker pace than the DoppleTaker match. Yoko seems to be more afraid of the casket than he is of Taker or his "powers". Match highlights include: *The ending. Right before 'Taker closes the casket lid on Yoko, he takes the Japanese flag from Yoko's manager(whose name escapes me now)and breaks it in two. *Chuck Norris. Hired as a special outside enforcer, Norris'importance in this match culminates when he kicks Jeff Jarret's teeth down his throat! The rest of the DVD is forgettable (unless you're an Owen Hart fan).
Rating: Summary: Awsome UT Movie Review: This is a awsome movie with five of the undertakers matches.
Rating: Summary: Very dissapointing Review: This is a terrible selection of Taker matches that makes me question his greatness. First you get the Undertaker vs. Fake Undertaker. The crowd isn't into it at all, and rightfully so as it is a very boring match. Undertaker vs. Kwang is a decent match, but certainly doesn't belong on a highlight DVD. Undertaker vs. Yokozuna is pretty much standard fare for the Undertaker, and fails to grab your interest. Undertaker vs. The Anvil is a complete joke. The match ends in a countout! A complete waste of space. Undertaker vs. King was only on video, and is probably my favorite on the disc, although that isn't saying much. In summary, don't waste your money on this DVD.
