Description

Angela (Sigrid Thornton) is a young hair-dresser having a hard time making ends meet. Looking for a fast way to earn some extra money, she accepts a job working as a model. Soon, however, she gets the feeling that someone is watching her; following her...stalking her. Is it her deranged ice cream truck driving ex boyfriend? A psychotic admirer? Or someone more sinister... As Angela delves further into her new and sordid lifestyle, she finds herself growing closer and closer to the deadly truth.

Director Simon Wincer's (QUIGLEY DOWN UNDER) slow burn psychological thriller, SNAPSHOT, melds character drama with moments of shocking violence and nail biting suspense. Featuring atmospheric scope photography by Vincent Monton (ROAD GAMES) and a pounding soundtrack from Brian May (MAD MAX), SNAPSHOT is a forgotten piece of Ozploitation and is proudly presented on Blu-ray from Vinegar Syndrome, newly restored from its original 35mm camera negative.

    Aussie Horror Rules

    This movie often gets talked about in slasher circles but I found it to be more of a drama with horror undertones. Great Aussie slowburn.

    Entertaining, twisty thriller

    Fun thriller that captures the vibe of the life of a up and coming model who has to deal with unwanted advances and a potentially dangerous stalker. Some good acting and practical effects, including a neat burn scene.

    Neat package with a few extras that include an alternate cut of the film and a reversible sleeve.
