There’s a party every day, a movie every night, and all the junk food you can eat. What more can a kid want… except to get out.
In the future, a health nut and his tag-along girlfriend become trapped in a drive-in theater that has become a concentration camp for outcast youths in this classic Australian sci-fi satire by Brian Trenchard-Smith (Leprechaun 3, Turkey Shoot). A movie about desperately trying to escape the movies only makes sense to screen outside where you walk in and out with ease - but you'll want to stay put, we're sure.

"Brian Trenchard-Smith is truly one of the greats of Australian cinema. This film is the epitome of his entire storytelling and aesthetic sensibility. Whacky speculative films that explore social themes and political themes through a genre lens with a sense of humor and sense of irony decades ahead of his time." - Alexei Toliopoulos, Letterboxd
