Electric Sheep article - Long Weekend (Colin Eggleston,1978)





Given the loose theme of 'aliens' for this month's edition of Electric Sheep, an online magazine devoted to the 'deviant side of cinema', I plumped for the cult Ozploitation shocker Long Weekend (Colin Eggleston,1978). Though not adhering to the traditional 'aliens' image, this dark eco-horror movie positions mankind as the foreign bodies infecting and invading Mother Nature. Check out the article and track down the film, the lyrics 'if you go down to the woods today...' will never have the same meaning after watching it.
