At Last... Bullamakanka: The Motion Picture is a 1983 Australian comedy about a small town visited by a government official. It is noticeable for the number of music acts that appear.
According to David Stratton, "the film had a very troubled and lengthy production history which presumably accounts for the first two words tacked on to the title".
