Primitive London Blu-ray

Primitive London

    Product Review

    Release Date: 25 May 2009

    First released in 1965, Primitive London is a once shocking mondo-style documentary that sets out to reflect societal decay through the sideshow spectacle of 1960's London depravity. Here, the camera finds mods, rockers and beatniks, an obscure band called The Zephyrs, seedy Jack the Ripper enactments, flabby men in the sauna, sordid wife-swapping parties and more.

    Shot just as the sixties was really starting, Primitive London shows a Britain trying to find a way of transiting from the post war depression of the 1950's and the shiny brave new world of the mid 1960's.
