Michael Clarke Duncan (The Green Mile), Will Forte (“Saturday Night Live”), Vivica A. Fox (“Curb Your Enthusiasm”), and Morgan Fairchild (The Seduction) star in the new comedy from Broken Lizard, The Slammin’ Salmon, available on DVD and Blu-ray™ on Tuesday, April 13th from Anchor Bay Entertainment (Pre-Book March 11th). Broken Lizard is the irreverent moviemaking comedy group – comprised of Jay Chandrasekhar, Kevin Heffernan, Steve Lemme, Paul Soter and Erik Stolhanske – that created such cult hits as Super Troopers and Beerfest.

Directed by Kevin Heffernan, and released theatrically by Anchor Bay Films, The Slammin’ Salmon tells the story of a former heavyweight boxing champ turned restaurant owner (Duncan) who, indebted to the Japanese mob, challenges his waiters to sell more food in one night than they’ve ever sold before – or face a pummeling by the Champ! SRP is $29.98 for the DVD and $34.98 for the Blu-ray™ edition.

The Slammin’ Salmon – which Cinema Blend’s Joshua Tyler says is “easily the best work Broken Lizard has ever done” – also stars Cobie Smulders (“How I Met Your Mother”), April Bowlby (“Drop Dead Diva,” “Two and a Half Men”), Sendhil Ramamurthy (“Heroes”), Lance Henriksen (Aliens), and Olivia Munn (G4 TV).

The Slammin’ Salmon DVD and Blu-ray™ bonus features include two audio commentary tracks – one with writer/director Kevin Heffernan and writer/actor Steve Lemme; the other with the Broken Lizard Comedy Troupe – and the featurette “Hellish Kitchens: Art Imitates Restaurant Life.”
