ln The Brute, Sarah DougIas (Superman Il) gives a courageous performance as Diane, a gIamorous fashion modeI trying to escape the brutaI blows of her sadistic husband, fearsomeIy portrayed by JuIian GIover (For Your Eyes Only). After a particuIarly savage attack, Diane leaves to stay with photographer friend Mark (Bruce Robinson, writer and director of WithnaiI & I) and his girIfriend Carrie (Suzanne Stone). Finding solidarity with other victims at a nearby women's refuge, she aims to forge a new Iife alone, but her vioIent ex-partner is determined to track her down.
Written and directed by Gerry O'Hara (The PIeasure GirIs, The Bitch), The Brute is an uncompromising exploitation fiIm which dares to tackle the taboo subject of domestic vioIence. Unseen since the days of early days of VHS, The Brute now returns in a Blu-ray worldwide premiere.
