We are so honoured to reveal Umbrella’s brand new 4K restoration of the pioneering Australian New Wave landmark WAKE IN FRIGHT from the original camera negative. A horror like no other before or since, this outsider’s ode to the outback burns like hellfire as it spins and spirals into a cacophony of blood, dust, and uncontrollable howls of manic laughter. WAKE IN FRIGHT (aka OUTBACK) lures us into The Yabba, an isolated town where the locals all have the same primal instincts to drink, shoot, screw, gamble, and brawl until the end of time. We did not blink at the chance to restore every bead of sweat and drop of beer in this sun-drenched descent into the clutches of madness. The whole team are beside themselves to make this essential masterstroke of Australian cinema available in its definitive form! New to The Yabba? Come and have a drink, mate. #umbrellaentertainment #film #wakeinfright #restoration
