Just when you thought it was safe to go hiking in the bushes again…along comes Mick Taylor. Kristy, Ben and Liz are three pals in their twenties who set out to hike through the scenic Wolf Creek National Park in the Australian Outback. The trouble begins when they get back only to find that their car won’t start. The trio think they have a way out when they run into a local bushman named Mick Taylor. Wait until you get a load of what Mick has in store for them. Their troubles have just begun. —IMDb
I wish I liked "Wolf Creek" more than I do, but I cannot. Mick Taylor is truly a charismatic and inventive character unlike any other villain from the gaggle of other horror movies like this. Otherwise the film is dull, contrived, and ultimately a slave to its own shock factor (which wasn't even enough to keep me interested).
not bad at all, i like movies with crazy people in the outback..! but the intro was bit too long & the main-part with all the sick stuff was too short... & at the end: this movie had one of the dullest escape of all time !
I feel the film is a failure to being a fresh take on a sagging, abused genre where predectableness domineers...although the settings a tad more picturesque than the mundane surburban nieghbouhoods of middle class America..the cruelty in the content is little more than repitition of the 'torture' themed genre.. however i dd enjoy the 'mad max esque' feel to the ending car chase...4/10
Has more of the sensory experience being in the brunt of the (ghastly) force than the glossy gratuity of your standard slasher film. Watch closely...it's meatier than Dead Man's Shoes.
