Adjacent to the Australian New Wave movement of the 70's and 80's was a period of exploitation filmmaking focused on explosions, fast cars, and gonzo genre flicks with an Ozzie flair. With countless films available this era of filmmaking can be a little daunting to dive into, so we’re giving you an entry point. Join Alexei as he brings you into the wicked world of the films of Brian Trenchard-Smith. We journey through his films The Man From Hong Kong, Turkey Shoot, BMX Bandits, Dead End Drive-In and even his prizewinning government PSA film combatting cigarette-fueled hospital fires.  

Catch up with a bunch of Brian's films and a huge selection of Ozploitation on Brollie.com.au or on the Brollie app
