The trailer will give everyone a glimpse into what is in store for them from the combined talents of each individual involved in every aspect of this film.  This press conference presents an incredible chance for journalist to meet the talent and hear from them first-hand what it was like to work on -- "Check Point."

Wilmington, North Carolina:  a terrorist "sleeper cell" disrupts this tight-knight community, throwing their "Norman Rockwell" life style into chaos and fear.  An ex-Marine turned vagrant suspects something is wrong, but no one believes him.  Justice seems lost when this insurgent attack threatens to escalate into a full-blown US invasion.  A team of unlikely heroes must band together, rise up to fight the enemy and protect their country.  It is a story about heroism and unity, perseverance and selflessness.

Directed by Thomas J. Churchill, he weaves an extraordinary ensemble cast in a seamless action thriller based on actual events from FBI agents and Homeland Security investigations of terrorists' sympathizers.  Check Point is now in post-production due to be completed in early January, with a Domestic theatrical release planned for Memorial Day weekend, May 2016.
