Bloody Weekend

Dean dreams of being a successful author of thrillers and having lots of money, a beautiful woman and a little house on an island in the South Pacific. But up to now, he has only made it as a property manager of a holiday camp in the mountains.

 

He is not really committed, mixes up the reservations, and hardly takes care of his duties. At a rather dull party, he meets Romy, an attractive psychology student. Quickly, they become very close and leave the boring party and go to one of the holiday houses in the camp. Dean thinks that the house will be vacant for the coming days. They spend the night together.
Ed Novak′s career as a gangster was abruptly ended by a terrible "accident", which confined him to a wheel-chair. He now specializes in planning raids, and his collaborators Toby, Alex and Rochus carry out the work for him. The three men raid a betting office, not knowing that one of the customers is the powerful gangster Honcek, who has manipulated a horse race and now wants to place a high bet for this race. Suddenly, the police arrive, a gun-battle ensues and, in the hail of bullets, Toby jumps into the car with Alex, leaving Rochus behind.
Once again, Dean has overslept. When he makes up, Romy is already gone. Instead, Ed, Toby and Alex are sitting in the remote house in the mountains - an ideal place to escape. Unfortunately, they are not only being chased by the police, but also by Honcek. And there is one thing that Dean does not yet know: Romy has given Rochus, who was hitchhiking, a lift in her car.
