    • Trivia
      The wording of this feature's title logo formed an image of the geographical shape of Australia.
    • Alternate versions
      The film was released theatrically in Britain in the mid 1970s, but not before it was heavily cut by the BBFC. The running time of the British version was about 70 minutes. Their version was substantially cut in comparison to the Australian prints, which ran at 82 minutes for the R-rated version, and 90 minutes for the X-rated version.

    The "shocking, sensational expose" that shocked no-one!

    Supposedly a responsible and informative look at what adult Sydneysiders get up to in the Kings Cross district (This being the Times Square/Soho equivalent in this city).

    Problem was, EVERYONE knew what went down there in 1974. They knew in 1954. I'm sure they had a pretty good idea in 1904?

    Consequently this sensationalised account of supposedly deviate aussie behaviour went nowhere. I saw the flick on its release...I think there were 8 other people in the theater...and before you start labelling me a pervert (well, that I AM I guess, but that's not the point) I was covering the flick for a newspaper!

    To date, I am reliably informed, the film has yet to return one million dollars!
