More Movies You Never Heard Of! kicks off at Trailers from Hell, with screenwriter Josh Olson introducing “An American Hippie In Israel.”
Practically begging to be a cult film, this 1972 Israeli
comedy featuring murderous mimes, bloodthirsty sharks and a Vietnam vet
shipwrecked with a band of hippies has been described as “a serious candidate
for the worst movie of all time”. Written, produced and directed by one-shot
wonder Amos Sefer, the film was also a perfect candidate for the Grindhouse
Film Festival where it was revived in August 2013 followed by a three-disc (!)
Blu-ray set from Grindhouse Releasing. Also known in the U.S. as The
Hitchhiker. NSFW.
