About the event
"Wake in Fright screened in full, while the exceptionally fitting Rhyece O'Neill Band bring the movie to life with an original live soundtrack." - Cactus Records Clip - https://youtu.be/s42EHZux0jM Rhyece O'Neill Band presents a live, original soundtrack to the Australian cult classic, Wake in Fright. In this performance, the band pay homage to this cult film, situating themselves off to the side of the screen, much like an orchestra would for a play, letting the already intense nature of the film take centre stage as they compliment the spaces between dialogue with desert blues guitar and driving drums.
Filmed in 1971, Wake in Fright delves into the brutal horrors and isolation of outback Australia, as an English school teacher begins his descent into madness. It was described by Robert Ebert as "Powerful, genuinely shocking and rather amazing" and Martin Scorsese reported "It left me speechless".
