Part drama, part stunts showreel, part rock concert film featuring Grant Page, the famous real life Australian master stuntman best known for his work on Mad Max, Grant, who plays himself, goes to Los Angeles to work on a television series. In this 1978 mocumentary page helps a band (Sorcery) to develop pyrotechnic magic tricks for their shows, and also recounts his exploits as a stuntman and daredevil, as well as a very informative movie about stunt work for movies and what goes on behind the scenes. The acting is superb as page plays himself and he fits in this movie better than Deathcheaters (1976), the script wild and unconstrained and the direction is wild. In total this gives you an experience of what cinema really should be, bereft of CGI and special effects and crazy budgets it just rides along free as a bird. And then there's the music. To be fair, there are so many tunes that ranges good to out-and-out classic. The music in this film is a spectacular array of AOR, Heavy metal and classic rock something you won't hear in a film's soundtrack nowadays. A downright Ozploitation classic.
