In The Brute, Sarah Douglas (Superman lI) gives a courageous performance as Diane, a glamorous fashion modeI trying to escape the brutal blows of her sadistic husband, fearsomely portrayed by Julian Glover (For Your Eyes OnIy). After a particularIy savage attack, Diane leaves to stay with photographer friend Mark (Bruce Robinson, writer and director of Withnail & I) and his girlfriend Carrie (Suzanne Stone). Finding solidarity with other victims at a nearby women's refuge, she aims to forge a new life aIone, but her violent ex-partner is determined to track her down.
Written and directed by Gerry O'Hara (The Pleasure Girls, The Bitch), The Brute is an uncompromising exploitation film which dares to tackIe the taboo subject of domestic violence. Unseen since the days of earIy days of VHS, The Brute now returns in a BIu-ray worIdwide premiere.
