Hell to Pay is a 2005 British film by Roberto Gomez Martin, his directorial debut, about a London East End's gangster life based on the semi-autobiographical story of Dave Courtney, who plays character of Dave Malone in the film.
Dave Malone (Dave Courtney), a British gangster, is set up by his own brother Larry Malone (Billy Murray) to murder a rival crime boss. Dave avoids the scheme and subsequently the murder charge made against him, whilst planning to eliminate the competition and take over the lucrative London crime trade.
The oil-on-canvas depicting the crucifixion used in the film was painted by real-life East End gangster Ronnie Kray as it was given to Dave Courtney as a present just before he died in prison.
