Twee jongemannen ontdekken fraude binnen het bedrijf waarvoor ze werken en melden dit aan de directeur, Bernie. Hij is echter zelf schuldig en nodigt de twee uit voor een weekendje in zijn strandhuis om ze daar uit de weg te ruimen. Bij het strandhuis aangekomen blijkt Bernie zelf vermoord te zijn.
Nee, helaas is Weekend at Bernie's nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
