THE ADVENTURES OF BARRY MCKENZIE Order

ALVIN PURPLE (73) Wacky sex comedy from the "if it feels good do it" ‘70s. Alvin’s a mild-mannered waterbed salesman who, for some unknown reason, women find irresistible. Wherever Alvin goes gorgeous babes are falling all over themselves to get a glimpse of his Purple mountain’s majesty. When he seeks psychiatric help for his "problem" the first shrink tries to seduce him and the second one sets him up in a Pop Art playpen and puts him to work as a sex surrogate! Lots of nudity, body painting and lowbrow humor in this fun Aussie rarity. Great looking letterboxed print complete with trailer. Order

ALVIN RIDES AGAIN Order

BARRY MCKENZIE HOLDS HIS OWN (74) Barry Humphries’ sequel to his earlier The Adventures of Barry McKenzie is a hilariously sharp-witted satire filled with broad slapstick and the kind of ribald, in your face humor the denizens of Down Under are famous for. It’s also packed to overflowing with inventive Aussie slang ("have a crack at putting the ferret through the furry hoop"), "beeyah," great songs, sex, "beeyah," violence, vomiting, "beeyah," prostitutes, kung fu fights, "beeyah," a ridiculous vampire subplot and, of course, "beeyah." Order

BLISS UNCUT Order

BLOOD CAMP THATCHER (81) aka Turkey Shoot; Escape 2000. Rare, UNCUT and letterboxed import version of Brian Trenchard-Smith's (director of Dead End Drive-In) wild, super-violent variation on The Most Dangerous Game. Starring Steve Railsback (Helter Skelter; The Stuntman), Olivia Hussey, and Michael Craig. Order

THE CHAIN REACTION (80) aka Nuclear Run. Predating Silkwood by three years this is a hardhitting, intelligently scripted thriller about an accident at a nuclear power plant and Big Brother’s efforts to cover it up and silence those involved. Lots of action and suspense, some great car chases (Aussies love their cars) and a cast that includes Mad Max alumnus Steve Bisley (Goose), Hugh Keays-Byrne (Toe Cutter) and even Mel Gibson himself in a small role as a bearded mechanic. Letterboxed print under the original "Chain Reaction" title complete with trailer. Order

DEAD EASY Order

DEAD END DRIVE-IN (86) aka Drive-In 2000. Bizarre sci fi anomaly from Australia about a government-run combination drive-in/roach motel where Aussie punkers check in, but they don't check out! Watch the drive-in screen closely for clips from director Brian Trenchard-Smith's other films, including The Man From Hong Kong and Turkey Shoot. Letterboxed. Order

DEATHCHEATERS (76) During the ‘70s stunt man craze when people like Hal Needham and Evel Knievel could write their own ticket, Australia’s one man exploitation empire, Brian Trenchard-Smith, decided to get in on the action with this entertaining little number. Two Aussie hard men and ‘nam vets who call themselves "Cunning Stunts" (get it?) are recruited by the government to burgle some important papers from a Filipino strongman’s err... stronghold. But enough about the wafer thin plot, just kick back and dig the groovy gags. Stars John Hargreaves and Grant Page. Order

DOGS IN SPACE (87) Simply brilliant look at teen punk rock life Melbourne style. Timeless and touching with wonderful performances (including, of course, INXS’ Michael Hutchence as the lovable "Sammy No-Brains") and one of the great musical soundtracks of all time. Great looking letterboxed print. Order

EVERYNIGHT, EVERYNIGHT Order

FAIR GAME (86) John Denver's ex, Cassandra Delaney, becomes a topless human hood ornament in this awesome Aussie B-movie that knows how to deliver the goods! Delaney is a lone animal rights activist on a wildlife preserve in the Outback who's terrorized by three crazed kangaroo poachers who thunder around in a giant shooting truck dubbed "The Beast." Great balls out action and revenge from the land Down Under. Order

THE FIRM MAN Order

THE FJ HOLDEN (77) Rare Aussie coming of age tale about a couple of blue collar blokes who work on cars, race cars, drive around in cars, chase tail, get in fights and drink many, many beers. Letterboxed. Order

FORTRESS (86) Yow! Here's yet another ass kicking action flick from Australia, mate! Rachel Ward stars as the teacher of the Outback equivalent of a one room schoolhouse. She and her students are taken hostage by four psychotic creeps wearing dime store masks (a cat, a mouse, a duck and Santa Claus!) and stashed in a cave while the thugs formulate their ransom demands. Teacher and pupils discover a way out and make a break for it, but it's not long before the costumed creeps are in hot pursuit. Tired of being terrorized, the plucky band make their final stand against the thugs using a variety of improvised weapons and booby traps and in the end they all learn the only REAL lesson there is: Kill... or be killed! An excellent suspense-filled actioner that also has an odd dreamlike quality to it. Order

GHOSTS OF THE CIVIL DEAD (88) Brutally realistic drama about events leading up to an inmate riot at a high tech Australian prison. Extremely well done with no effort made at giving the viewer an easy out or sympathetic characters to root for. Watch for Nick Cave as a psycho nut job sent to torment the other cons and brief glimpses of Forced Entry on one of the tellys! Highly recommended. Order

GIRL-TOY (84) aka Melvin, Son of Alvin; Girltoy. Third and final entry in the Alvin Purple saga finds Alvin’s illegitimate and still virginal son wrestling with the same problem as dear old dad: being completely irresistible to women. Poor guy. The girls at school steal his urine, his step-dad makes him work at the topless carwash and his mom’s trying to marry him off to the highest bidder. Not only that, but a local TV station is trying to reunite father and son for their "Sex Freak Family Comes Together" special ("It’s good television. Simple, moving, something the family can identify with"). And as for Alvin Senior, he’s now singing Doors covers at ladies nights, runs a fitness center (the "Purple Vein") and has his own sex cult! Order

HERCULES RETURNS Order

JOURNEY AMONG WOMEN Order

THE LAST OF THE KNUCKLEMEN (79) Hookers and hard hats in an outback mining camp make up the players in this little known wonder from Down Under. Gerard Kennedy stars as "Tarzan" a middle-aged mine foreman who lets his fists do the talking. Michael Preston is "Pansy", camp loudmouth and designated pain in the arse who thinks he can take the ol’ geezer. When Pans pushes a bit too hard he gets his wish and Tarzan challenges him to an old fashioned bare knuckle boxing match. Word gets around and pretty soon everyone wants in on the action. Then out come the bankrolls and down go the bets! Letterboxed. Order

LONG WEEKEND (79) A suburban couple whose relationship is on the rocks decide to take a "long weekend" in the outback only to find the local flora and fauna extremely inhospitable. Lost Aussie masterpiece is effectively creepy, boasts some striking scenery and is highly recommended. Gorgeous print too. Order

THE MAN FROM HONG KONG (75) aka The Dragon Flies; Zhi Dao Huang Long. UNCUT 100min.letterboxed English language version. Includes trailer. Order

METAL SKIN (94) It's another bizarre love triangle from director Geoffrey Romper Stomper Wright, who once again focuses his attention on disaffected Aussie youth hellbent on self destruction. Only this time they're motorized and tearing around the countryside in supercharged hot rods! Violent, brutal action with a final stock car vs. muscle car chase scene that must be seen to be believed! Letterboxed. Order

MIDNITE SPARES Order

MONEY MOVERS (79) Rare UNCUT print of this highly engaging heist yarn about armored car drivers plotting to stick up their company’s counting house. With a number of extremely violent, bloody scenes (including a nearly unwatchable toe cutting) and an early appearance by Bryan Brown. Letterboxed. Order

THE ODD ANGRY SHOT Letterboxed Order

OUTBACK VAMPIRES (87) aka Prince at the Court of Yarralumla; The Wicked; Tomorrow’s News. Colin Eggleston’s campy horror comedy from Down Under plays like a cross between Dead Alive and The Rocky Horror Picture Show! Order

OZ: A ROCK ‘N’ ROLL ROAD MOVIE (76) This Antipodean oddity puts a glitter-rock spin on the L. Frank Baum story. Dorothy (Joy Dunstan) is a third-string rock groupie who suffers a concussed noggin while riding in a van. She’s transported to “Oz” (short for Australia,” mate). She meets a good fairy, i.e. a gay haberdasher who kits her out in ruby red cha-cha pumps. Hitting the rugged outback, she meets a surfer (Bruce Spence), a greaser and a biker in her search for “The Wizard,” a David Bowie-like rock star. Dorothy does eventually meet the Wizard, but winds up chewed up and spat out by show biz. The moral she learns is a great deal more profane than “there’s no place like home!” Beautiful widescreen print includes theatrical trailer! Order

PETERSEN (74) aka “Jock” Petersen. Jack Thompson stars as “Jock” a philandering former footballer with a dodgy repair business who’s enrolled at University so that he can “make something of himself.” And bang co-eds. And drink beer. And get into brawls. Complete uncut and letterboxed version of this most excellent Aussie character study, complete with all the boobs, bush and bloodshed trimmed from the old U.S. Charter video release. Order

PUBERTY BLUES (81) Bruce Beresford explores the mating rituals of Oz surfie chicks circa the late ‘70s. Blue Crush it ain’t but, depending on your point of view, that may very well be a good thing. Letterboxed. Order

PURE S (76) aka Pure Shit. A group of Australian junkies try to score over the course of one very benighted evening. The fact that one of their friends has overdosed and died doesn’t deter these hopheads from their next fix. Making their way through an increasingly seedy milieu full of desperate characters, one of them finally winds up in a methadone clinic headed by a quack doctor. The kids then must decide if the cure is worse than – or merely an extension of – the addiction. Raw and uncompromising with scenes of slamming that appear too real to have been faked, Pure S poses questions about substance abuse that society has yet to answer. Order

REDBALL Order  

THE REMOVALISTS (75) Lost Aussie black comedy classic from Tom Jeffrey (The Odd Angry Shot) about two police constables, one a tongue-tied introvert just trying to survive his first day, the other a jaded officer of 20-years experience, who are called on to assist a battered woman as she moves furniture out of her abusive husband's flat. Alternately funny, violent, cynical and vulgar thanks to an exceptionally strong script from screenwriter and playwright David Williamson (Petersen, Don's Party, Gallipoli, The Year of Living Dangerously), The Removalists is a rare jewel awaiting rediscovery. Order

ROCK ‘N’ ROLL COWBOYS (87) This totally whacked-out Australian musical fantasy suggests director Ken Russell helming an MTV rock video after digesting a sheet of blotter acid. An evil inventor approaches the roadie of a heavy metal band with a magical synthesizer, which not only enhances music, but brings the innermost fantasies of the musician to life! This leads to a series of bizarre, erotic and hilarious sequences with a beat you can dance to. The characters include a Phil Spector-ish producer who performs arcane Egyptian rites involving harem girls and tomatoes, and an anti-rock Christian crusade called “Cowboys for God!” Futuristic sets, garish costumes and overall hysteria ass up to a Midnight movie standard in the making! The music ain’t bad, either. Order

RUNNING ON EMPTY (82) aka Fast Lane Fever. Order

SMOKE ‘EM IF YOU GOT ‘EM (88) Amid the radiated rubble of the aftermath of World War III two survivors find a fallout shelter packed with hardcore partiers who are determined to go out with a bang, not a whimper. Savage black comedy short from Australia starring George Huxley and Nique Needles. Includes bonus trailershow for a buttload of other Aussie gems like Puberty Blues, Alvin Purple, The Odd Angry Shot, Stone, and many more! Order

STIR (80) Brutality and mistreatment lead to revolt followed by the inevitable reprisals in this grueling look at Aussie prison life circa the 1970s. Based on the screenwriter’s real-life experiences and with another fine performance by Bryan Brown this would make a great (although admittedly disturbing and depressing) double bill with Ghosts of the Civil Dead. Letterboxed. Order

STONE (74) The biker (or as they call it "bikie") subculture down under is a bit different than it is here in America. Oh, they share the same fashion sense and "leisure time activities" alright, but when it comes to their rides Aussie outlaws prefer Kawasaki crotch rockets to chopped hawgs with apehanger handlebars. And when they talk about movies that reflect their lifestyle they don’t talk about Easy Rider, they talk about the one and only Stone, the greatest Aussie bikie movie of all time. The plot’s simple, if unlikely, enough: A square but tolerant undercover cop named Stone joins the Gravediggers Motorcycle Club in hopes of discovering who’s been killing off its members and begins to go a bit native in the process. What makes this admittedly corny premise sing is director Sandy Harbutt’s handling of the material. From the 500-bike strong funeral procession and Satanic burial service to the club’s seaside fortress and appropriately grungy hangouts Harbutt’s attention to detail and love for the lifestyle are evident throughout. Add to that strong performances, some serious violence, psychedelic camerawork and a killer soundtrack and you’ve got a movie that still kicks major ass to this day. So we encourage you to, as the original posters for the movie said, "take the trip" and check out Stone. Order 

STUNT ROCK Letterboxed Order

TWO HANDS (99) This smash hit at the Australian box office stars the late Heath Ledger as Jimmy, a backstreet boxer and strip club doorman who thinks he’s on his way to the big time when he’s recruited by local crime boss Pando (Bryan Brown). But when Jimmy fucks up his very first assignment and loses ten grand in dirty money to a couple of street urchins it looks like his next stop is going to be sleeping with the dingos. Only way to avoid that is to get Pando his money back. And the only way to do that is... rob a bank! Stylish, action-packed excitement filled with odd characters and punctuated by offbeat humor and moments of extreme violence. And unlike the crap copies making the rounds at eBay and Blockbuster cut out bins, our exclusive letterboxed import print features better picture quality, cooler box art and even includes the director’s award winning short film The Date. So there! Order

VICIOUS aka To Make a Killing. Order
