A glitter-soaked, fuzz-guitar fever dream of Australian independent cinema.
If John Waters & Peter Jackson were hijacked by The Cramps
When Furr Fever, a wild guitar-slinging feline, crosses paths with the leather-clad Wolfy Howl, the pair ignite a whirlwind romance and form The Sextortions, a rockabilly garage band whose music unleashes chaos wherever it goes. Standing in their way are scheming music executives, a corrupt mayor and a treacherous bandmate determined to bring them down.
Part rock musical, part cartoon fantasia and underground cult comedy, Wolf Cat Fever is a handcrafted explosion of music and mayhem from Australian director Josh Sinbad Collins. Embracing a deliberately camp, low-budget aesthetic, that combines handcrafted sets, recycled costumes, and a rock-and-roll attitude this eccentric Australian indie film celebrates creativity, rebellion and the enduring power of loud guitars, with a colourful cast of animal-inspired characters.
‘Wolf Cat Fever is an undeniable Australian original: a hyper-real, hand-built rock ‘n’ roll spectacular.’— Zombie Zoo Productions
