Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Part of Australia's 70s 'ozploitation' boom, when lax censorship let filmmakers get genuinely weird with genre formulas.
The 'dairy farm' explicitly mirrors factory farming—Hardy wanted audiences uncomfortable with their own consumption. The film was partially funded by the Australian Film Commission, which presumably didn't read the script closely.
