When Philip Adams declared
Turkey Shoot as 'pornographically violent' with 'unrivalled sadism and brutality', the film's fate was sealed as the guiltiest pleasure in Australian film history.

Turkey Shoot follows a group of inmates in the not-too-distant year '2000' who are unleashed and hunted down like 'roos.
Much spearing and evisceration ensues.
