Tomcats is a 1977 American film directed by Harry E. Kerwin and starring Chris Mulkey, Polly King, Wayne Crawford, and William Kerwin. It was also known as Deadbeat, Getting Even and Avenged.[1]

Filmed and set in Miami, Florida, the film details the actions of four amoral and degenerate thugs, named M.J., Johnny, Billy, and Curly, who travel around robbing, gang-raping and murdering young women.
