chris h Mar 24 Underrated movie about a goat unable to figure out what to do with troubled youth.keeping them in isolation till the government figures out what to do with troubled youth.nice 80s campy soundtrack. See more 07/27/2022 Dead End-Drive In is a good mix of Mad Max and Clockwork Orange for ozploitation film and is really fun 86 minute action film. See more delysid d 08/21/2018 this is sort of a mad max or escape from new york wannabe, so if you like that kind of 80s crud, its for you but im not much of a fan See more 05/19/2017 Very underrated 80's Post-apocalyptic drive-in prison. Creative to a high point. They just don't make movies like this anymore. If you've never seen will make your day memorable. 5/5 See more 04/11/2017 I finally got around to seeing this one, and this movie serves as a reminder of how Australian films are the best at portraying the Wasteland. See more 04/04/2017 Starts by ticking you into thinking it's going to be one of the 47 million Mad Max rip offs that was released around the same time, but quickly takes a left turn into "poignant social commentary". Keeps the punks though, so that's cool. See more Read all reviews
