Marilyn Rodgers, an actress known for her role in Australia After Dark (1975), brings a unique presence to the film's exploration of the seedy side of Australian nightlife. In this cult classic, she embodies the spirit of the 1970s exploitation genre, where the boundaries of societal norms are pushed. Although her filmography may be limited, her performance in this gritty narrative captures the essence of the era's fascination with taboo subjects and the darker aspects of human nature.
Australia After Dark
Five years before he turned the world on with his schoolgirl sexploitation classic FELICITY, producer/director John Lamond made his indelible debut with this ‘mondo’-style look at the depraved underbelly of a land down-under. It’s an ultra-sleazy, full-frontal journey through “the weird and the pathetic, the ugly, the obscene and the beautiful,” featuring strippers, swingers, murderers, devil worshippers, nutty gurus, drunken aborigines, and much more. From the back alleys of the big cities to the savage cruelty of the outback, discover a continent of pleasure, pain, erotic art, wriggling cuisine, tiny bikinis, alien landings, record-breaking beer consumption and insane amounts of ’70s nudity, now fully restored from a print recently discovered in the cellar of the Lower Wonga Drive-In and presented uncut & uncensored for the first time ever in America.
