Deathrow Gameshow was a black comedy film in which condemned prisoners are given the opportunity to be granted reprieves for their sentences by participating on a deadly television game show called Live or Die.

Plot[]

Chuck Toedan (played by John McCafferty) is the host of a game show called Live or Die featuring deathrow inmates competing in life-or-death contests in hopes of cheating the executioner or at the very least, winning some nice prizes for their next of kin. Not surprisingly, Toedan has made more than a few enemies, from outraged viewers trying to ban his show, to families of losing contestants looking for revenge. A hitman hired by one such family has shown up at Toedan's office and he'll need to enlist the help of his most outspoken critic to keep from ending up like most of his contestants.
