Mad Max: Fury Road comes to Sydney

To celebrate the release of Mad Max: Fury Road, the streets of Sydney will come to life with a live promotional event!

On Wednesday May 13th, one day before the film’s Australian premiere, an awe-inspiring range of trucks, sedans, pick-ups, and motorbikes from the film will roar through Sydney, turning the city into a (hopefully less violent) replica of George Miller’s post-apocalyptic world.

The vehicles—including the War Rig, the centrepiece of the whole event that fans will instantly recognise from the trailers—will end their convoy with a public showcase outside the Sydney Opera House. Everyone is invited to get up close and personal with these impressive vehicles, and a specialised production crew will be on hand to answer questions and provide background information. The War Rig will be joined by Razor Cola, The Giga-Horse, The Doof Wagon, and The Nuxcar, among others.

Australian director George Miller is excited for this high-octane showcase on the steps of one of Australia’s most iconic buildings—the perfect stage for Mad Max’s comeback: “I’m so proud of our Mad Max crew. The magnificent teams who master so many disciplines: stunts, special effects, rigging, camera, design, editing and so on. Australians at their best… resourceful, highly skilled and graceful under pressure. These vehicles are a manifestation of their craft. I still get a buzz standing next to them, listening to the sound of the engines.”

One of the film’s key vehicles will remain on-site at Event Cinema for a week after the showcase, so if you miss the main event make sure you don’t miss your chance to see this one!

Mad Max: Fury Road will be released in Australia and New Zealand on May 18th, 2015 and is rated MA15+.

Presence Review

Steven Soderbergh's film Presence offers a unique twist on the haunted house genre, shot entirely from the ghost's perspective. The story follows a family grappling with grief, particularly Chloe, who senses a presence in their home. While the POV technique adds intrigue, the film leans more toward family drama than horror, delivering a slow-burn experience.
