Film Description

The Australian outback town of Paris is a sinister community that preys on the unfortunate motorists that pass its way. Forcing cars off the road the townsfolk then descend upon the wrecks. The parts and possessions are scavenged, the dead are buried and those who survive become guinea pigs for the local doctor’s bizarre experiments. Driving towards town are the latest unwitting victims, George and Arthur Waldo.

Part horror, part black comedy, Peter Weir’s debut feature is a true original.
