Publisher's Synopsis
Critics may sing from an over familiar hymn sheet of so-called 'cult films,' but there remains an epoch of British cinema still awaiting discovery that is every bit as provocative and deserving of attention. And there could be no finer guide to these uncharted domains than Offbeat. This is the book for the more intrepid cinema lover. So, move over Get Carter and The Wicker Man - it's time to make way for The Mark, Unearthly Stranger, The Strange Affair, The Squeeze, Sitting Target, Quest for Love and a host of forgotten gems.
