What makes this film just ever so slightly rear its head above mediocrity is the fact that it is beautifully shot and has a great build up towards the reveal of one hell of a bad guy. It is a shame, however, that this otherwise creative film feels the need to merrily…

WadeFeb 21, 2013Roger Ebert has a rather notorious review of this film, in which he gives the film zero stars and goes on about how the film is misogynistic and revolting. While I will agree the "head on a stick" scene is revolting, that moment is not graphically violent, and really is the…

i liked this a lot more than i would have thought. it was SO well shot and the score was very good. the characters aren’t perfect but that’s about all i can complain about. i love the location and im usually not a gorehound but it was a perfect level. 7.5/10

NathanDirector is "meh" onWolf CreekRating: 6.2/10 Wolf Creek is a brutally effective and masterfully crafted survival horror film that's not for the faint of heart. Director Greg McLean creates a patient and terrifyingly realistic nightmare anchored by John Jarratt's iconic performance as the sadistic Mick Taylor. Highlights -…

It's really hard to give this one a proper rating. I wasn't convinced it's based on true events and if/since it is...it's incredibly insensitive. Which is fine for a standalone horror but if you're basing on real life let's maybe not so much with the overture of rape. More on LB.
Damien likedWolf CreekI was led to believe it was much darker than it turned out to be. Guy kidnaps people. Torture. Chasing. Rinse repeat. His accent kinda intrigues me though. Entertaining for a single watch for me.
stormie lovedWolf CreekIts not far fetched, based off of true events, and very very unsettling. I’ve always found this movie to be very creepy and honestly uncomfortable in the way thrillers should.

SoPhil is "meh" onWolf CreekWay overhyped for what it actually was like. Knowing it’s based on true stories from the area is freaky but separating that from the movie - I’ve seen scarier, gorier movies.
Frogdor likedWolf CreekA pretty solid horror movie, our killer in this film was pretty solid and grotesque in how he acts. You really do feel bad for the girls he takes as a victim as well.
CJJJJ likedWolf CreekIt’s so much scarier because it’s Australian it’s feels so much more real for me. This has definitely put me off going to see any craters in aus

The ambitions are so paltry that our response should be too: Wolf Creek is unimaginative, light on the grue and heavy on the faux-serious desperation.

Writer-director Greg McLean, who has many shorts and commercials under his belt, makes a significant feature debut here, with unapologetic horror that doesn't compromise.
