Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaPenultimate film shot featuring Australian actor Jon Blake. About a year later after this film's shoot had wrapped in December 1985, he was injured in a car accident near Nectar Brook, South Australia after shooting had wrapped on the last day of filming of The Lighthorsemen (1987), on 1st December 1986. Website 'Cinephilia' reports of the Jon Blake accident and legal case: "Jon Blake was critically injured whilst driving home on December 1, 1986, after the final day's filming of The Lighthorsemen (1987). He sustained severe brain injuries and in December, 1995, the New South Wales Supreme Court ruled that Blake should be compensated for the loss of potential earnings as a star in the United States. After taking evidence from actors, directors, and film critics who indicated his career could have been as big as Mel Gibson's, the court awarded him $32 million in damages. This was later reduced to $7 million after the defence appealed."

Featured review
Great classic
Fantastic Australian cult movie in the class of Mad Max and Running on Empty.Had to be around that era to understand the buzz of a GTHO and other classic cars.Probably a bit late for its time.Wish I could find a good copy of the movie though.To see the wheels spinning and to see the shaker working on the HO is something to remember as well as the mechanic spanner.If your younger than middle age and not Australian you'll probably won't understand some of the humor,such as "Spanner,grab the bottle of BUNDY will Ya".Jon Blake was a fantastic actor that could have had the status of Mel Gibson if it wasn't for a tragic car accident that landed him as a paraplegic with brain damage.I for one as well as a lot of other people where saddened when we heard of this event.Classic Aussie actor of his time.Great in The Light horsemen with a bunch of other great Australian actors.
