The involved player is knocked unconscious in the proceedings and cannot verify that Bill made the correct call.

Movie Reviews

User Review - 8/10 by Benjamin DBad supporting acting, Three Stooges-esqe humor, and a ridiculous but sadly not that unrealistic plot describes "Kill the Umpire", a 1950 film starring classic character actor William Bendix. Bendix carries the film on his back with his comedic pre-Simpsonian performance, battling terrible acting in each dirction. However, the acting is in the "so-terrible-its-fun" category, topped off with an occasional smirk after an awkard piece of dialoge reading. Plus, its a B-movie. What do you expect?
