Death Weekend (1976) watch online

Death Weekend is a 1976 horror film written and directed by William Fruet, and starring Brenda Vaccaro, Don Stroud, and Chuck Shamata.

Loosely inspired by a real home invasion case in Canada, Death Weekend was filmed on location in the fall of 1975 in Maple, Ontario. It was an international co-production between Canada, Italy, and Panama, with half of its $500,000 budget origination from the Canadian Film Development Corporation. It was produced by Ivan Reitman, marking his second film production credit after David Cronenberg's Shivers (1975).

Death Weekend premiered in Ontario on September 17, 1976, before opening in Quebec on October 8, 1976. In the United States, the film was distributed in 1977 by American International Pictures under the alternate title The House by the Lake.
