    Episode 788: Welcome to Woop Woop (1997)
    Feb 25 2026
    Australia month crashes to a delirious halt with 1997’s Welcome to Woop Woop, Directed by Stephan Elliott and adapted from Douglas Kennedy's The Dead Heart by screenwriter Michael Thomas, the film strands American grifter Teddy (Johnathon Schaech) in a surreal outback shantytown ruled by Daddy-O (Rod Taylor) and fueled by show tunes, superstition, and mob justice. Susie Porter co-stars as Angie, who drags Teddy into the warped social rituals of Woop Woop—Dog Day, asbestos mines, pineapple Christmas, and a kangaroo called Big Red.

    Ben Buckingham and Rahne Alexander join Mike to dissect the film’s Cannes infamy, its grotesque fairy-tale politics, and Elliott’s post-Priscilla swing for the fences.
