About this product

Product Information

Ghosts of The Civil Dead is a startling and powerful film set entirely within the confines of a maximum security prison a new generation prison painted in play school colours. It goes beyond traditional prison themes of good and evil to draw a frightening allegorical portrait of the nature and organisation of our society. Central Industrial Prison is located in the middle of a desert. It's been locked down confinement of all prisoners to their cells following an outbreak of violence. The film flashes back to trace the events that lead to the lock down, allowing us to see the truth of the system. Unseen but omnipotent; the administration has deliberately provoked inmates and officers alike. On release this controversial film caused heated debate worldwide. The most disturbing aspect is that it's all true. This basis in truth combined with expert direction, sense of style, and a maniacal performance from Nick Cave (who also provides the haunting soundtrack) results in intelligent and powerful cinema. Now for the first time we've gathered the most extraordinary extras ever for an Australian film. A complete history from inception to release as told by the key cast, crew and musicians. You won't have seen anything like this before. An entire project on its own, the extras provide a compelling insight to the film and the people who made it.
