John Wayne Parr: Blessed With Venom is a feature length documentary chronicling the life and career of Australian Muay Thai superstar and 8 times World Champion, John Wayne Parr. The film provides an intimate insight into Parrs early years in Thailand where he endured rigorous training in primitive conditions, to the heights of awe-inspiring accomplishments all over the planet. We also get to see a very personal side to the Gunslinger as a husband and father of two. The true John Wayne Parr is revealed here. Champion, devoted family man and all round nice guy - a genuine hero with infinite courage to his legion of fans, respected by his opponents and dearly loved by his friends and family.

From his bloody contests with Thai marvel Orono, which is considered the making of the Gunslingers legend, to his contemporary battles with Mike Zambidis, Lamsongkram and the three, all out wars with superstar Yodsanklai Fairtex. We bear witness as Parr comes back from 2 losses to ultimately defeating Yodsanklai in Melbourne a blockbuster encounter between two giants of the sport two modern day gladiators doing what they do best trading bone crunching blows in the brutal world of Muay Thai Boxing.
