“An uppercut above the rest” – Film 4

Based on the international best-selling autobiography of BAFTA award-winning writer Geoff Thompson, CLUBBED delivers a knockout blow on 4 May as the brutal, bloody and gruesome tale of the violent world of 80s clubland arrives on Blu-ray and DVD, courtesy of Route One Releasing.

Danny (Mel Raido – The Informers, He Kills Coppers), a lonely factory worker, intimidated by life, is battered and humiliated in front of his kids in a random act of violence. Consumed by fear the fear of confrontation, the fear of speaking out and the fear of being a nobody in a tough environment, his already bleak existence sinks further into the abyss. On the verge of total breakdown he decides to fight back.

He meets a group of night-club doormen who take him in and give him the confidence to stand his ground. As he is drawn deeper into their world he becomes embroiled with the local gangland boss, setting in motion a train of events with bloody and brutal consequences. He must now decide whether to let the fear keep him in his place or step up and conquer it once and for all. For Danny, this decision will alter his life forever.

With an all star British cast including Colin Salmon (The Bank Job, Dr. Who) as Louis the head nightclub door-man, Shaun Parkes (Moses Jones, Harley Street) and Scot Williams (The Crew, Cape Wrath) as his crew Rob and Sparky and Maxine Peake (Little Dorrit, The Devils Whore) as Angela, Dannys long-suffering wife, CLUBBED certainly packs a punch.
