Blood Circus (also known as Blood Circus Wrestling)[1] is a 1985 independent American science fiction-horror film about intergalactic professional wrestling.[4][5] It was produced by Baltimore-native Santo Victor Rigatuso, also called Robert "Bob" Harris, who promoted it through infomercials for his mail-order "Santo Gold" jewelry business. Though it had a brief regional release funded by Rigatuso, the film never received distribution.[6]
