Punishment Park (1971)

[ninebelow]

I went to see Punishment Park today as part of the ICA's Peter Watkins season. Watkins is best know for his remarkable psuedo-documentary The War Game about the after effects of a nuclear attack on Britain. Filmed for the BBC it was banned for twenty years. If you haven't seen it, you should go out and rent it immediately.

Made five years later

I saw a bootleg of Punishment Park about 6 months ago, and was very impressed. I'm looking forward to trying to see THE WAR GAME.
