"Choke" - The movie "Choke" is based on the Chuck Palahniuk ("Fight Club") novel of the same name.
"Choke" is a black comedy that follows Victor Mancini (Sam Rockwell), a sex addict who works as a Colonial War re-enactor and runs a con scheme that involves deliberately choking in restaurants and attaching himself parasitically to his rescuers, all to fund his mother's (Angelica Huston) care at a private mental hospital. He is forced to address his intimacy issues when he falls in love with his mother's doctor and discovers that he is unable to perform with the one woman he actually likes.
