Mark Hartley’s documentary Not Quite Hollywood: The Wild, Untold Story Of OZploitation! offers an historical overview of the Australian film industry in the ’70s and ’80s, when directors unleashed a storm of exploitative "free-wheelin’ sex romps, bloodsoaked terror tales, and high-octane action extravaganzas." Noel Murray at the Onion says it "offers plenty of evidence about what made these movies special, from the bad puns and nudity to the buckets of gore. And with all their dull bits excised, a lot of these movies look like neglected pulp masterpieces, ripe for rediscovery on DVD. Think of Not Quite Hollywood as a vividly illustrated catalogue of astonishing smut."
