- Bring Me the Head of Mavis Davis
"Bring Me the Head of Mavis Davis" is a British comedy film directed by John Henderson, originally released in 1997.
The film stars Rik Mayall as a rock manager who recruits Jane Horrocks (playing the title character). The film also features Danny Aiello and Ross Boatman.
Music producer, Marty Starr (Rik Mayall), is infuriated to discover that the woman he turned into a household name, Marla Dorland (aka Mavis Davis) (Jane Horrocks), is rapidly losing her fame. WIth debts up to his ears, Marty believes the only way to secure Marla's fame is for her to die, and thus earn Marty a fortune. The only problem is that Marla refuses to die.
During her tour in the film, Mavis Davis (Horrocks) sings "I'm Alright" previously sung by Kenny Loggins.
The title is an obvious reference to Peckinpah's "Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia".
