The Killer
Yes, this does look like rather a lot of fun. The full theatrical trailer for Australian cult film documentary Not Quite Hollywood, which tracks the Oz-sploitation films of the late seventies and early eighties, has just arrived and it is an absolute blast. Sure, they’ve got a who’s who of talking heads explaining why these films matter but the film makers are also smart enough to know that it’s the films themselves that are the real attraction and there’s loads of the good stuff in there. And by good stuff I mean car chases, explosions, kung fu, cheap monster effects and more!
You can find the new trailer plus the original effort below the break in the Twitch Player.

Is there anyone out there who could point me towards some of the movies that are shown in this trailer?

Mad Max, Razorback, The Man from Hong Kong and Howling III -The Marsupials are the ones that jump out at me.

Been listening to the podcast of a weekly news and reviews show on Australian radio, Movie Time, and the latest show talked with some of the organisers of the Melbourne International Film Festival, who have included a section on Ozploitation classics, using this film as the centrepiece/launchpad.
Sounds like it’d be interesting to get along to, if you’re in town.
