To Make a Killing is a 1988 Australian film that was also known as Vicious.[2]

Plot

At a resort, a high school student stumbles on a series of murders.

Production

Producers Tom Broadbridge and David Hannay had decided to make a package of four exploitation films all shot on 35mm for the world video market which were all shot in late 1987. This was one of them - Broadbridge wanted Zwicky to make another script but he wanted to make his own and the producers agreed. The script was written in fit weeks and the movie was shot in four 6-day weeks in the northern suburbs of Sydney.

Release

The film was not released theatrically and went straight to video.
