    Its hectic stuff, 30 years of trash fun in 90 mins, I had no idea that they were quite so prolific esp with the early 70s "nudies". Good to see Road Games get the thumbs up from Tarantino (the only American talking head who clearly is a fan). The film critic is hilariously distainful (with tongue in cheek).

    this is great and is on Youtube check it out cause it gives you a great history on trashy aussie films.

    I saw this at the Horrorthon two years ago... 2008, that is. It's a great documentary, and was definately a highlight of the 'thon. Hillarious, informative and a really interesting look at a film industry that's quite overlooked. Really great watch. Especially after the face-raping that was Martyrs.

    Watched this last night.Was kinda disppointed as it mostly focused on tits and ass movies.Barring Turkey Shoot (which is great,campy fun) and Mad Max I dont think Ive seen any of the stuff featured.Some of the horror/thriller stuff looked ok though.

    See if you can find Road Games (why its not on some channels catalogue beats me), Richard Franklin went on to make Psycho 11 which was a far better film than it had any right to be.
