Summary: "With the relaxing of censorship laws in the early 1970s, a feast of B-films exploded onto Australian screens as maverick filmmakers served up a diet of murder, mayhem and full frontal nudity in exploitation classics such as Stork, Alvin Purple and Stone. Celebrated in the hit documentary Not Quite Hollywood, six of these 'Ozploitation' genre films are presented here in one post-apocalyptic mash-up of sex, violence and foor-to-the-floor action!"
