What is it about Chuck Palahniuks novels not making for successful adaptations? First it was Fight Club that failed at the box office (but it found a cult following on home video). Now its Choke, Palahniuks fourth novel; it had a limited theatrical run but it also failed to ignite much fanfare. With its release on DVD, now may just be the perfect time to discover the offbeat, dark comedy that stars Sam Rockwell, Kelly MacDonald and Anjelica Huston. Check after the cut to see how you can win yourself a copy today!

Question 1 – Sam Rockwell had a supporting role in this recent (as of last year) Best Picture nominee?

CHOKE – TWO COPIES IN ALL
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
CHOKE: Based on the novel by Chuck Palahniuk (Fight Club), Choke is a dark and wickedly funny joyride from the depths of sexual compulsion to the heights of the Second Coming! Beside working at a colonial reenactment theme park and trying to hook up with everything on two legs, sex addict Victor Mancini courts the love and money of complete strangers via a demented con that might just kill him. But first, Victor must save his dying, delusional mother (Anjelica Houston) by seducing and impregnating her comely physician, a task easier said than done, in this gleefully twisted tale of dysfunction, salvation, love, and libido.
