Wake in Fright
This nearly-lost, queer-coded, incredibly violent Australian horror film follows a schoolteacher (out actor Gary Bond) who is stranded in an Outback mining town, where the local men draw him deeper and deeper into their deranged life far from civilization.
A schoolteacher, stuck in a teaching post in an arid backwater, stops off in a mining town on his way home for Christmas. Discovering a local gambling craze that may grant him the money to move back to Sydney for good, he embarks on a five-day nightmarish odyssey of drinking, gambling, and hunting.
