Synopsis

Pre-dating Peter Jackson's arrival (Bad Taste) by three years, New Zealand's first horror movie sees actor Michael Hurst fighting mutants (including Bruno Lawrence) on Waiheke Island, in his movie debut. Hurst's character is out to avenge the mad scientist who forced him to kill his own parents. A grand prize-winner at a fantasy festival in Paris, David Blyth's colourful and proudly OTT splatterfest marked the first of many horrors funded by the NZ Film Commission, and was the first local showcase of the smoothly-flowing Steadicam camera.
