1985:
Michael Winner (1935 - 2013) was an English film director and producer, a restaurant critic an art collector, and Jimmy Page's next door neighbor. He edited his own movies using the pseudonym Arnold Crust. Over his film career, he worked with many big name actors including, of course, Charles Bronson for the Death Wish movies. Jimmy Page created the soundtrack for 1982's Death Wish II.

Winner's 1984 movie Scream For Help is about a teenage girl who suspects that her cruel step-father is plotting to kill her and her mother, and who is unable to get anyone to believe her. It didn't do well in the box office in spite of male frontal nudity and a soundtrack (released in 1985) that was composed by John Paul Jones, featuring Jimmy Page on two of the tracks. The movie has garnered a cult following since then.

"Completely entertaining for all the wrong reasons... easily one of the worst films ever made." Amazon review by David A Robson
"Awful but compulsively watchable... the most hilariously bad movie ever created." Amazon review by Chris Manson
"For Bad Movies....This one's a Hit" Amazon review by Roy Everhart
