This Weekend, Bella has Decided to Take Out a Few Men
from the director of DEATH WISH

director: Michael Winner
starring: Lia Williams · David McCallum · Rufus Sewell · Sylvia Syms · Ian Richardson

This is the story of Bella, a young woman who woke us one morning and realized she'd had enough. All it took was one rather nasty man to transform her from a meek secretary into a 'Death Wish' femme fatale. This is her story of one weekend, renewed sexual freedom and... seven brutal killings.

Banned for years in England (where is was shot) and never released in the United States, this controversial film is based on the novel by Helen Zahavi. However, it is more similar to the DEATH WISH films, with a female in the Charles Bronson role. Interestingly, it is directed by Michael Winner who also made the first three 'Death Wish' movies. As it turns out, DIRTY WEEKEND would be his final project. Mr Winner died at age 77 in January 2013 after a bout with the Vibro Vulnificus virus.

Of side note: Michael Winner worked as the editor on this and other films under the pseudonym Arnold Crust. Beside directing 42 movies, Mr Winner also was a restaurant critic for London's Sunday Times.

A British film in English Language; fullscreen format (4:3), totally uncut version (102 min.), DVD encoded for ALL REGION NTSC, playable on any American machine. Extras include theatrical trailer.
