Finally! Another novel from Chuck Palahniuk (who gave us Fight Club) has been adapted into a feature film. This time, it's Choke, another demented, naughty book that'll likely be translated into yet another cult fave film. There's both a regular theatrical trailer and an R-rated red-band trailer. What you'll learn from that red-band trailer is that this is a dirty, dirty movie, filled with profanities, S&M, hand-jobs, sex addictions, and every other profane thing you can think of. Apparently, the message is that it's all about sex. The theatrical trailer makes it a little clearer what the movie's about: Victor (Sam Rockwell) is a "historical interpreter" who also happens to be a sex addict. He's in some sort of support group for it, but he ends up hooking up with girls there, too, of course. Meanwhile his mom is in a home and can't even remember his name. You just know these sex issues have something to do with his mother, and that's never a pleasant thought. He has one friend (that guy from Dexter and October Road) who should be helping him with his "problem" (although if getting lots of out-of-your-league girls to have sex with you is a "problem," I know about a million or so men who would pay for that problem) but is too busy masturbating to pictures of Victor's mom. I think they are pictures from when she was younger, but still: Ew. Seriously, Victor: HE IS NOT YOUR FRIEND. That's pretty much what you get here: kinky sex and obscene humor. Like a Judd Apatow movie on steroids.
