TRASHFEST is compiled and edited by Andrew Leavold, Queensland-based director of the cult documentary The Search For Weng Weng, from his thirty-plus years of excavating film oddities. Here Leavold digs deep into the Trash Video vaults (his legendary Brisbane cult movie store from 1995 to 2010) to create the ultimate two-hour party mash-up for cine-generates and severely damaged pulp casualties: clips from Bollywood and Nollywood – that’s Nigerian DIY “cinema” - as well as vintage ads and trailers, brain-numbing Christian shorts, spookshow weirdies, a Filipino midget disco number, Turksploitation (ever seen the Turkish Star Wars?), the North Korean Godzilla, Indonesian flying-heads-with-guts-attached, wrestling Mexican Mummies - a glorious Trash-fried enchilada with heapings of extra cheese!
We are very excited to be joined by it's creator Andrew Leavold, who will be with us for a chat about cult film from around the world!
This screening is 18+, and the film will begin at the advertised time above.
