The origin of the term "Ozploitation" is credited to the documentary '' Not Quite Hollywood: The Wild, Untold Story of Ozploitation!''. This 2008 feature explores Ozploitation films made during the Australian New Wave. The film includes interviews with numerous figures involved in Ozploitation, as well as fans of the genre, including American director Quentin Tarantino, who coined the phrase "Aussiesploitation", which director Mark Hartley then shortened to "Ozploi ...
