If you’re a fan of Nacho Libre, Ready to Rumble, or the Netflix hit series Glow, you’re not going to want to miss this.

The mankind, the myth, the legend is bodyslamming his way to home video later this month along with an all-star cast in Chokeslam. An official selection of the World Film Festival – San Francisco and the Calgary International Film Festival, the comedy film centered around the glorious sport with a love story underneath, stars WWE Superstar Mick Foley, Chris Marquette (Fanboys, The Girls Next Door), Amada Crew (HBO’s Silicon Valley, The Age of Adaline), Michael Eklind (Watchmen), and Niall Matter (The Predator).

Corey (Chris Marquette), still lives in his mom’s basement with same job slicing meat in a tiny deli for over a decade, a sad and lonely figure. His life shut down after hastily proposing marriage to his best friend Sheena (Amanda Crew) in front of their entire high school only to have her turn him down. 

A humiliated Corey wanted Sheena to stay in their small town but she was going on to much bigger things. Ten years later, Sheena, now a world-renowned professional wrestler, famous for her legendary temper in and out of the ring, has come back home for her and Corey’s high school reunion and Corey cannot help himself, immediately falling for Sheena all over again. But professional wrestling has not been kind to Sheena. She’s changed. She’s hostile and burnt-out from years on the road and has announced her retirement. 

To win back over her heart, Corey plans a retirement benefit match for Sheena but what Corey never envisioned is that the match lures talent scouts to watch her wrestle and the scouts are so impressed that they are going to fly in the big boss to see Sheena wrestle. If he’s as dazzled as they are, he’ll offer Sheena an exclusive five-year wrestling contract, only it is to wrestle in Japan. Corey feels like he’s been scissor-kicked in the stomach. The very event intended to rekindle Sheena’s love for wrestling, and hopefully her love of him, now threatens to take her away from him forever…Love is hard to pin down.

The film is a product of Executive Producers Trevor Wilson (Forsaken) and Mark Gringras (Jigsaw Colossal), and is available for pre-order at the MVD Shop. Chokeslam will be released February, 27th 2018.
