In The Brute, Sarah Douglas gives a courageous performance as Diane, a glamorous fashion model trying to escape the brutal blows of her sadistic husband, fearsomely portrayed by Julian Glover. After a particularly savage attack, Diane leaves to stay with photographer friend Mark (Bruce Robinson) and his girlfriend Carrie (Suzanne Stone). Finding solidarity with other victims at a nearby women’s refuge, she aims to forge a new life alone, but her violent ex-partner is determined to track her down. Written and directed by Gerry O’Hara, The Brute is an uncompromising exploitation film which dares to tackle the taboo subject of domestic violence.
