This week we have some overlooked or underrated gems, movies that slipped under the radar or were somehow misunderstood the first time around. There are movies based on classic literature, movies that sing and dance, and movies that blow stuff up.
David Gulpilil and Aaron Pedersen are showing Charlie's Country at Blak Nite, and Jo Lawrie releases her album Talking Pictures today, in the midst of a tour with Paul Simon and Sting. Jon Faine's co-host is composer, musician, writer and broadcaster, Casey Bennetto.

We all know the famous plot, a group of desperate survivors take refuge in an empty farm house, as corpses begin to reanimate, leaving graveyards across the countryside in search of fresh human flesh to devour.
