Exposé
A paranoid writer is unable to get started on his second novel. He hires a secretary and then his troubles really begin.
Why it matters
A grimy, unsettling slice of 70s British exploitation that captures the era’s creeping dread and moral panic with a mean-spirited edge.
- Only British film to land on the original ‘video nasties’ list—proof of its raw, boundary-pushing content amid a conservative cultural moment.
- Tense atmosphere rooted in claustrophobic London settings, blending psychological unease with grindhouse grit.
- A paranoid writer’s downward spiral doubles as a critique of creative and societal anxieties in mid-70s Britain.
- For fans of vintage exploitation that traffics in mood and menace over outright gore, this is a rare UK specimen with a venomous streak.
