A sluggish, uninspired chore from start to finish. Go to Full Review
Philip French Observer (UK) 02/24/2013
There's little originality but a decent amount of suspense, a great deal of blood and some promise. Go to Full Review
Rich Cline Contactmusic.com 02/22/2013
3/5
Packed with references to classic horror thrillers, this Australian film is a gimmicky freak-out that keeps our pulses racing even if it never really gets under the skin. Go to Full Review
Miles Fielder The List 02/20/2013
2/5
It's one thing to pay homage to your favourite filmmakers; it's another to rip them off. If there's a fine line between the two, China has stepped well and truly over it. Go to Full Review
Shaun Munro What Culture 02/18/2013
3/5
Though minimalist to a fault, there's plenty of tension to keep this grisly Aussie thriller bounding along. Go to Full Review

Lavender S @RT37283796 06/05/2024 Wonderful independent Australian film! See more Jemma H @RT85707783 04/17/2024 Checked this out after watching the filmmakers most recent movie. A bit slow at times but well made considering how low budget the film is. The old guy was great. Loved the Australian outback setting. See more Kev M @RT82980396 03/30/2024 A bit like a student movie for large parts but mostly enjoyable and well shot (though largely stolen from The Cohen Brothers). See more 07/26/2020 A confusing trip through the backwaters of Australia. No clue what was supposed to happen in this film and I was kind of glad when it ended. Largely a waste of time. See more chris f @RT76761715 07/18/2020 There's very little to like here. The movie is very slow, which is almost impressive considering it's only 80 minutes long. The music, or rather the way it is used, is deplorable. Watch Crawl (2019) instead...now that is a great movie. See more 12/23/2019 This is an Australian movie that is poorly directed. The actors are not first class and the script is poorly written. The music is annoying. It's a waste of time to watch. It's written and directed by Paul China and produced by Ben China. Both have produced garbage. Oh, this movie has been classified as "comedy". I can't see anything funny or even humorous about it. It's really a stupid movie. See more Read all reviews
