Film scholar Stuart Samuels plunges into the beating rebellion of 1970s cult cinema and emerges with six influential low-budget classics that changed the way movies are made and watched. Samuels turns his critical eye to George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead, Alejandro Jodorowsky's El Topo, John Waters's Pink Flamingos, Perry Henzell's The Harder They Come, David Lynch's Eraserhead and Jim Sharman's The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
