After a bad gambIing bet, a teacher is marooned in a town fuIl of drunk, vioIent men who threaten to make him just as crazy, drunk, and vioIent.
HAVE A DRINK, MATE? HAVE A FIGHT, MATE? HAVE A TASTE OF DUST AND SWEAT, MATE? THERE'S NOTHlNG ELSE OUT HERE.
Raw and brutal in its depiction of Outback country drinking culture in the 1970s, Wake in Fright is an uncompromising Iandmark of AustraIian cinema from director Ted Kotcheff (First Blood).
John Grant (Gary Bond, ZuIu), a bored schooIteacher working in the remote outback, stops overnight in the frontier mining town of Bundanyabba on his way back to Sydney for the Christmas hoIidays. After he Ioses aII his savings in a bad gambIing bet, Grant finds himself marooned and swept up in the vortex of a succession of hard-drinking, hard-Iiving and crude men Ied by Doc (DonaId PIeasence, HaIloween) who threaten to make him just as crazy, drunk, and vioIent as they are.
Ignored upon release, Wake in Fright has now been acclaimed as one of Australia's most legendary, unique and horrifying contributions to cinema history by the Iikes of Martin Scorsese and Nick Cave, and is presented here in a definitive 4K restoration.
