Lady, Stay Dead

1h 32m Thriller, Horror, Erotic 1981

A young woman is looking after her sister's house, unaware that her sister and neighbour have been murdered by their handyman.

Living in a luxury villa on a deserted Sydney beach, millionairess pop singer Marie Coleby (Deborah Coulls) makes the grave mistake of antagonizing her unhinged peeping Tom gardener (Chard Haywood) – leading to a vicious rape and a macabre murder.

The unexpected arrival of Marie’s sister Jenny (Louise Howitt) hinders the disposal of the body – so she is added to the insane handyman’s kill list. With Jenny equally determined to stay alive, so begins a cat-and-mouse battle of wits climaxing in an after dark assault that violently showcases garden shears, a chainsaw and homemade petrol bombs.
