Chokeslam Movie
A new IndieGoGo campaign recently launched for a new film called Chokeslam, which features WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley.
The campaign has already raised 7% of its $50,000 budget goal; some of the contributor gifts include on-set memorabilia, calls from Foley, producing credits and more. You can read the film synopsis below; click here for the fundraising campaign page.
COREY SWANSON, thirty, living in his mum’s basement, has had the same job slicing meat in a tiny deli for over ten years. Getting shutdown ten years earlier, after proposing to his girlfriend, SHEENA, in front of students and faculty can make a person a little weary.
But Sheena—now a world renowned wrestler, famous for her legendary temper –has flown into town for her and Corey’s high school reunion. Even though Sheena’s with a new man, TAB, a chiseled, smarmy manager from LA, Corey can’t help but become smitten all over again.
However at the wrestling event Corey’s planned for Sheena’s retirement with his good friend LUKE (a down-on-his-luck, former high school quarterback) a group of Japanese talent scouts offer Sheena a job in Tokyo!
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 for him), now threatens to take her away forever.
CHOKESLAM is a film about bruising your knuckles as you club your way through the barriers of love. It’s also about the perils of dating a wrestler with a bad temper.
