Review

This look at “Ozploitation,” the period in Australian film in the seventies and eighties that produced such flamboyantly out-there genre films as Mad Max, Mad Dog Morgan, and The Adventures of Barry Mackenzie, is an entertaining attempt to reclaim a period in recent film history with which many international viewers are unfamiliar.
