Comments |
This film is a laugh and then some! Great if you like trashy films, lots of gore, and nudity.
--------------------
The documentary allows an overseas market to learn about the history of a famous style of Australian film making during the 1970's- 1990s. The films made during this era were made in blunt terms, to make money. The films used a large amount of violent narratives as this was in popular demand in the Hollywood film industry.

Synopsis |
Documentary that shows the boom of exploitation cinema in Australia in the 1970s and 1980s.
------------
The documentary focuses upon the exploitation era of Australian cinema but also captures an era of what filmmakers saw as an Australian identity. A marketable larrikin who would be placed in generally lude, violent or ridiculous scenarios.
The documentary is a well researched piece of an analysis of Australian film and how the rest of the view displayed these exploitation films.
