Not Quite Hollywood: The Wild, Untold Story of Ozploitation!
NOT QUITE HOLLYWOOD is the wild, untold story of "OZPLOITATION" movies - a time when Australian cinema got its gear off and showed the world a full-frontal explosion of sex, violence, horror and foot-to-the-floor, full bore action! Jam packed full of outrageous anecdotes, lessons in maverick filmmaking and a genuine, infectious love of Australian movies, NOT QUITE HOLLYWOOD is a fast moving journey through Aussie genre cinema of the 70s and early 80s.
Its a fun and lively historical journey of mavericks and rogues setting out to make the most outrageous and iconic films that leaves the identity of Australia in the world of films. You're introduced to a healthy collection of Australian exploitative and genre films, either sending a social message or just done in the name of fun, that film geeks would need to see from Patrick to The Man From Hong Kong. The doco gets praise for getting interviews that ranged from the most famous to the recently forgotten and tells the story about the importance of film genres in that decade. You'll realize that Australia had made so many kick-ass films.
