Final Cut is a 1980 Australian thriller film directed by Ross Dimsey. It was the first movie funded by the Queensland Film Corporation, who provided half the budget.[1] The Australian Film Commission and private investment provided the rest of the finance. It was originally envisioned as a tele movie but then developed into a feature.[2]
It was shot at Surfers' Paradise.[3]
Cameraman Chris and his girlfriend Sarah are making a documentary about a music promoter, Dominic. They accompany him on his yacht where he is holding a party. During the party a model is killed and Dominic worries that Chris and Sarah may have filmed it.
Dominic invites Chris and Sarah to his luxury penthouse. Violent games ensue, some involving Dominic's mistress Yvette.
