Beatdown
To fight another day...you must survive.
Directed by Mike Gunther
Produced by Lionsgate, Legacy Filmworks
A gritty underground fighting thriller about survival and redemption, driven by action and the constant threat of violence.
Brandon, a respected street fighter, is forced to flee the city after his brother is murdered and the money that was supposed to be paid back to a local gangster is stolen. While lying low at his father's house in a small Southern town, Brandon soon gets involved in the local underground cage-fighting circuit. With the help of Drake Colby, a former MMA champion, Brandon devises a scheme to bring a massive payday, if they are able to survive.
