FacebookXPinterestEmailEmailEmailShare

In the new movie Battle Scars (opening July 14th in theaters and also available On Demand), soldier Luke Stephens (Zane Holtz) returns from service in Afghanistan with post-traumatic stress and unthinkable physical wounds suffered in an IED explosion. He gets caught up in a criminal underworld every bit as challenging as his previous life in a war zone.

He crashes with his brother Nicky (Ryan Eggold) and tries to forget the war but his veteran father (David James Elliott) won't let him. Luke hangs out at a strip club and meets Michelle (Heather McComb), who leads him into a brutal situation that both puts him in danger and brings back the adrenalin jolt he felt in Afghanistan. We've got a promotional clip for the film.
