Title:
Turkey Shoot Lobby Card - 'Paul Anders' for French Release
NFSA ID
1523592
Year
1983
This is one of a set of eight French lobby cards for the Brian Trenchard-Smith 'Ozploitation' film Turkey Shoot (1982), renamed Les traqués de l'an 2000 (which directly translates to Hunted People of the Year 2000) for its release in France in 1983.
Turkey Shoot was set in the near future where 'social deviants' are sent to prison camps for re-education and a game of 'turkey shoot' is played out as the prisoners bid for their freedom in a deadly game of cat and mouse.
This lobby card features hero Paul Anders (Steve Railsback) running for his life from Chief Guard Ritter (Roger Ward) who is pointing a gun at him.
The photo works well in summarising the central premise of the film – unarmed prisoners pursued by sadistic guards and murdered for sport.
