In THE GUTTER, when the often-fired Walt (Shameik Moore) lands a position as a bartender and shoe-softener at his local bowling alley, AlleyCatz, he feels like he’s finally found a home. When financial troubles threaten AlleyCatz, Walt is pressured by former pro bowler and current drinking champion Skunk (D’Arcy Carden) to accept his role as the greatest bowler ever put on this earth. While Walt’s love of big checks and aggressive playing style dominate the professional circuit, his detractors, including ratings-obsessed news anchor Angelo Powers and recently-retired bowling legend Linda “The Crusher” Curson (Susan Sarandon), furiously try to snuff out Walt’s flame before it burns too bright.
