Choke and Outlander

After proving to be an audience favourite at this year’s Sundance, the adaptation of Chuck “Fight Club” Palahniuk’s novel Choke is finally getting ready for its cinematic close-up.

Featuring the likes of Sam Rockwell, Anjelica Houston and Kelly McDonald, it’s the tale of a sex-addicted git (Rockwell) who also pretends to choke on food in restaurants so he can exploit those who help him for cash. Just your typical Palahniuk tale of ordinary folk, then. And did we mention that it looks fantastic?
