Choke is the latest book in Chuck Palahniuk‘s arsenal to be adapted into a motion picture. The movie follows Victor Mancini who is an impulsive sexual deviant that purposely chokes on food to get money for his ailing mother.
With Choke being written by the author of Fight Club, some may expect a more action-oriented movie, but Choke is more of a dark comedy than action movie. You have to be kind of twisted to appreciate the humor and not be easily grossed out. Also, there are a ton of graphic sex scenes in this movie so it’s definantly not a movie to see with your mother.
Overall, I really enjoyed this movie, I’m a big fan of Palahniuk’s work and this movie did not disappoint.
