Wolf Creek

A chilling, factually-based, story of three road-trippers in remote Australia who are plunged into danger when they accept help from a friendly local. 🙂

Seems great!
a bit like the T.C.M. remake probably

This looks good, will definetly see this at the cinema.I think it is released on 16/09/05 in the UK.

I have been waiting for this film for ages, looks excellent. Lucky buggers at the London horror festival got to see this film.

This looks interesting. I might see this when I see more on it.

our date format is different ,

eg, day/month/year (UK)
month/day/year (USA)

oh ok

This film is not good, boring and uneventful.

Reviews I read said it was brutal, it is not brutal at all , dont be fooled, the film is weak, the acting is rubbish and the actors do not create likeable characters with any personality, and I wasnt convinced by the killer it seems like the actors were allowed to ad lib all the dialogue for the first 40 mins of the film, in which absolutely nothing happened, the first part of the film is very protracted and when what little violence there is begins its over almost as soon as it started, in fact there is no violence at all, only one scene, its all implied but not effectively. Dont waste your money, I got in to see this half price but its not even worth that, I actually considered walking out of the cinema.

4/10

my sister went to see this the other day she said it was horrible.

I agree with Papabeard, I was VERY disappointed with the film.

i haden't even heard of this until the other day. when i watched the trailer it didn't make me feel like i wanted to watch it

my sister said it was good

she also said it was terrorfying

I thought it was half decent. The 'severed spine' scene is pretty disturbing, but on the whole the concept has been done to death, and the killer is so steriotypically australian!

it was set in Australia.. 😖

I agree, but the severed spine and the fingers are the only moments like that in the film and they happen within seconds of each other.

SPOILER:
However, the fact that I thought that she would be the one who would escape, and she didnt was a nice touch.

REAL LIFE INTERFERES WITH WOLF CREEK

Unless you live in Australia this probably won't effect you all that much. But it seems that Roadshow Films has been contacted by Director of Public Prosecutions, Northern Territory, Australia. They are asking for a push back on the November release date of the film 'Wolf Creek' due to an upcoming trial.

See, the film is based on true events (I know this normally evokes groans from the audience.) surrounding a series of "backpack murders" where the real life killer was never captured.

Well, it seems that a man named Ivan Milat has been jailed and charged with related killings. Could the original case be reopened? His trial is forthcoming and prosecuters seem worried that this film may effect the trial.

This might very well be the first serial-killer film to be distributed during a trial. That is if it's all related...

The Peter Falconio murder case is very much the same deal and is on in NT, AUS at the moment. That is why it is being pushed back.

The Ivan Milat Backpacker murders were in NSW in a National Park.
He was arrested some years ago.

Yeah , I think they should have included that in the article.
