Meet Decker. He’s a former federal agent turned mall security guard – Paul Blart, eat your heart out – played by action veteran Steven Seagal. More often than not, he also finds himself on the End of a Gun, which is exactly where or our grizzled hero is placed in this exclusive, action-packed clip for Keoni Waxman’s thriller.
Rolling back the years, Waxman’s genre piece is one of a number of Seagal vehicles simmering in the works, given the esteemed actor also holds roles across The Asian Connection, The Perfect Weapon, Code of Honor and Sniper: Special Ops – we’re beginning to sense a pattern emerging – all of which are slated for release in 2016.
In terms of End of a Gun, though, it’s booked in to hit theaters on September 23, when the Seagal action flick will also become available across select VOD services. Chuck Hustmyre penned the script...

Know what we need? We need a movie about super-sized man-eating alligators (in 3D of course) that's rated PG-13 to "maximize the target audience." Didn't anyone learn anything from Shark Night?
Said to mix the humor of Gremlins with the sheer terror and smarts(!) of Deep Blue Sea, Chomp 3D is set against the backdrop of the Louisiana bayou and flavored with Cajun culture. Expect many pools of bloody water and little else. The flick is on sale right now at Efm with no director attached. The flick, if sold, will be produced by Golden Globe nominee Dan Grodnik and executive produced by multiple Indie Spirit nominee Nick Stiliadis. The story is written by Louisiana native, ex-atf agent, and award-winning author and screenwriter Chuck Hustmyre.
Synopsis
A wild storm off the coast of Louisiana sends the Chinese freighter “Sea Dragon” crashing into the break wall and spilling its deadly cargo.
