The intense action thriller GRIDLOCKED explodes onto Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD June 14 from Magnolia Home Entertainment under the Magnet Label. Director Allan Ungar (Tapped Out) brings the “crowd-pleasing action thrill ride” (Cinema Axis) to life with extreme fight scenes and a surprising twist. Dominic Purcell (“Prison Break”) is joined in combat by Cody Hackman (Tapped Out), Trish Stratus (“WWF Raw”), Vinnie Jones (“Arrow,” X-Men: The Last Stand), along with legendary action stars Stephen Lang (Avatar) and Danny Glover (Lethal Weapon Franchise, Shooter), in the high-octane film that will sure keep audiences at the edge of their seats.

After being injured while on duty, NYPD SWAT leader David Hendrix (Purcell) is paired with bad boy celebrity Brody Walker (Hackman), on a mandatory ride-along as a requirement for his probation. Soon, the two are forced to unite with a team of officers in the Special Forces unit to protect a facility that is targeted by mercenaries. Filled with extraordinary shoot-outs and “an unapologetic flurry of bullets, beatdowns and blood” (PopOptiq) leading to a shocking outcome, Gridlocked is “pure action entertainment” (Toronto Film Scene). 

Go behind the scenes of all the incredible fight sequences and unforgettable action with  deleted scenes, blooper reels and more when the GRIDLOCKED Blu-ray and DVD arrive. Both will be available for the suggested retail prices of $29.98 and $26.98, respectively.

Synopsis

GRIDLOCKED is a crowd-pleasing action thriller in the tradition of Die Hard and Lethal Weapon. Former SWAT leader David Hendrix is down on his luck and has failed to receive medical clearance after taking a bullet on the job. Despite being highly trained and competent, his efforts have been reduced to routine tasks for the NYPD. As if things couldn't get any worse, he's been forced to babysit Brody Walker, a hard partying celebrity that's been sent on a mandatory ride along as part of his probation.  Pampered and irritating, Walker is the last thing Hendrix needs. But all of that changes when a police training facility comes under attack by a team of ruthless mercenaries led by the mysterious Korver. 

Now, Hendrix and Walker must band together with the remaining survivors to fight back and keep the mercenaries from overtaking the compound.... if they don't kill each other first.
