Trivia

Greg Burridge is a genuine British pro-wrestler who self-funded this after being rejected by every studio—he broke his ribs on day three and kept shooting.

Cultural

The 'kidnapped fighter tournament' trope peaked with Undisputed (2002); Deathpit is either its grubby spiritual sequel or proof the concept should've stayed buried.
