David Blyth cemented his place in the Kiwi filmmaking renaissance in 1978 with experimental feature Angel Mine, and then Death Warmed Up, New Zealand's first homegrown horror movie. Since then Blyth's work has included family friendly vampire film Moonrise, WWI doco Our Oldest Soldier, and a number of documentary works that explore sexuality.
Film has been a vehicle for experimenting with emotions and exploring taboos...my main conflict has been the desire to break new ground, personally and artistically, while acknowledging the financial realities involved in surviving as a filmmaker.
– David Blyth, in conversation with Roger Horrocks in 1985.
