- Summary:
- Mad Dog Morgan is a 1976 Australian bushranger film directed by Philippe Mora and starring Dennis Hopper, Jack Thompson and David Gulpilil. The film is based upon the life of Dan Morgan who became a bushranger after being brutalised in prison. Saved by Billy, an Aboriginal outcast, the two men terrorise southern NSW, killing policemen and raiding farms, until the price on Morgan's head reaches 1,000 pounds. Crossing back into Victoria, Morgan's behaviour becomes increasingly erratic, as the police close in.
