DVD Description
"Hell to Pay" is a modern reworking of Cane and Abel, set in London's infamous underworld. Dave (Dave Courtney) and Larry (Billy Murray) are brothers who jointly run a prominent London "firm". The film opens with Larry trying to cover his tracks after he has "knocked" a rival gang boss, for £100,000 of drug money. This is the catalyst for a dramatic chain of events that will lead to double-cross, murder, and ultimately full scale war between the brothers. Larry, a devious schemer, sees the drug trade as a lucrative way forward for the firm, despite his brother's protests, and when Dave, who is forced to kill Murphy to protect Larry, is arrested for murder, Larry takes the opportunity to set himself up as drug baron. With an improvisational narrative structure and a raw-edged stylistic approach, "Hell to Pay" has the uncomfortable feel of a fly on the wall documentary as it chronicles the sometimes chilling, sometimes routine events that typify the distinctly British gangster lifestyle. Punctuated by naturalistic performances and an earthy, ironic humour. The movie has a pungent air of authenticity, bolstered by the fact that many of the principles are living the real life experience of the world their characters inhabit. Genuine gangster icons Dave Courtney, Joey Pyle, "Pretty Boy" Roy Shaw, and Tony Lambrianou, all long-time associates of the Krays, ensure that the situations and dialogues ring true, by drawing on their personal knowledge.

4.0 out of 5 stars The acting starts off a bit iffy, but then it turns round, 15 Jan 2006
Dave Courtney is one of those larger than life characters and beneath his gangster legend he is actually a really decent fella, though a little violent :) The film is full of very naughty people from beginning to end and certainly justifies Daves reputation as the yellow pages of crime.

There is a beautiful scene in the film in which he references Vinny Jones after an incident with a sunbed. This is him taking back the mentioned scene from Lock Stock. Vinny Jones character was based on Dave Courtney and the sunbed was a real debt collection. A few other parts of the film were episodes in Daves life and some of the footage was from the TV news at the time.

Altogether a fun DVD and a slice of life of that 'orrible little #$£@ Dave Courtney. A very funny bloke with a heart of gold, who else would auction off a signed knuckle duster for money for the local kids home.

3.0 out of 5 stars One to add to your british gangster collection., 9 Jun 2007
By Mr Twitch (Essex UK) - See all my reviews
Typical Dave Courtney Production, although the acting is a little bad at times, especially by Gary Bushell et al, the scenes where Mr Courtney is " 'aving a word" are quite realistic as this is obviously remanissant of days gone by.
Billy "Don Beech" Murray is typecast in this feature as the rogue brother and there is also un-necessary cameo appearances by retired east-end gangsters with no relevance to the thin storyline.
If you ever have watched "Hard Men" on Bravo TV, then many faces will be familiar in this film. Likewise this would be a typical feature for the Bravo channel.
A fun film to watch with the lads and definately not one to watch with your lady due to the violence and excessive use of bad language.
