The Wonderful World of Ozploitation
Filmmaker Mark Hartley's jaw-dropping, blood-soaked, & high-octane look into the rise and fall of Australian exploitation cinema through the 70's and 80's.
Among the Aussie directors and films profiled are: Bruce Bersford, director of "The Adventures of Barry McKenzie" & "Don's Party", before directing the Oscar-winner "Driving Miss Daisy". Tim Burstall, known for sex comedies like "Alvin Purple" and "Stork". Richard Franklin, known for thrillers such as "Patrick" and "Road Games", before directing "Psycho II" in Hollywood. Brian Trenchard-Smith, the Ozploitation director of the cult films "Dead End Drive-In", "Stunt Rock", and "The Man from Hong Kong". And last but not least: George Miller, who brought "Mad Max" to the forefront of Austrailian cinema worldwide attention, along with its newest import, Mel Gibson.
This free-wheeling never boring doco is a great introduction for novices willing to check these movies out for themselves. But there's a lot of full-frontal nudity and graphic violence throughout the film. Definitly not for the faint-hearted.
Extras include: Commentary from director Hartley and various Ozploitation directors, deleted & extended scenes, Quentin Tarantino interview with Trenchard-Smith, and much more...Lire l'avis complet...
Not Quite Hollywood: The Wild, Untold Story of Ozploita
Not too much Comes out of Australia that we know of. It's nice to know there are more horizons to explore when it comes to Movie experiences. As a fan of b-movies, this film gives you a brief summary of the different genres, Actors,Directors, etc... to come from down under.
I found it to be interesting & quite entertaining. I would suggest this to be a great watch for anyone. However, there is a lot of nudity, so be warned if you are offended by it, or have children.Lire l'avis complet...
Aussie Exploitation from the 60's to the 80's
This is a one of a kind look back at the days of exploitation cinema in Australia which mirrored the history of American exploitation cinema. Lots of films are covered, many of which are rare and obscure today, with lots of behind the scenes stories from the filmmakers themselves. Deleted scenes and a Quentin Tarantino interview of Brian Trenchard-Smith run almost another hour.Lire l'avis complet...
