#1 The Undertaker - Suburban Commando (1991)

Over the years, The Undertaker has been more protective of his character than any other Superstar in modern WWE history. "The Deadman" has notoriously shied away from outside projects, so it may surprise you to learn that the real-life Mark Calaway has a movie cameo to his name.

In the summer of 1990, though, the soon-to-be Undertaker was cast in Suburban Commando - a science-fiction comedy starring none other than WWE legend Hulk Hogan in the lead role of "Shep Ramsey". The Undertaker would debut for WWE a few months after filming the movie and was an established Superstar in the company by the time it was actually released.

In the film, 'Taker plays the part of an alien bounty hunter known as "Hutch" who is trying to track Shep down on Earth. Curiously, Undertaker's character has the voice of a young female.

It is fair to say that The Undertaker does not rate the movie highly. Speaking during a podcast appearance with Peter Rosenberg, Undertaker had some harsh words to say about Suburban Commando:

"They called me and said, 'Hogan is doing this movie in LA, we want you to read for it.' I read for the movie, got the part. Worst movie ever. It was awful. Truly, truly awful. But, that kept me busy for a while."

Suburban Commando might not be the sort of movie you need to watch more than once, but it is fascinating to see two of WWE's all-time best face off on the big screen.
