This is one of my favourite horror movies of all time.
And the late Roger Ebert gave it 0%. Not because it was a bad movie, he said, but due to its immorality and irresponsibility.
Mr Ebert, God bless him, has done many accurate and well-written reviews and some I did not agree with at all. This was one of the two reasons I can cite why I thought he could be a total ass sometimes.
The first was his infamous videogame qoute which states that no videogame can ever be art. As any gamer knows, there are already numerous masterpieces which can be called art. (Heavy Rain, Mass Effect etc.)
His Woif Creek review is the second.
Wolf Creek is a hard-hitting, no compromise, no punches-pulled gutpuncher of a movie without wallowing in gore and excess as some other movies do. There is actually very little gore here, aside from some old decaying corpses in the killer's killing room.
The brutality of this movie (which I do not recommend to sensitive souls) is due primarily to the acting which is uniformly brilliant.
I don't know if the cast is well-known in Australia, but they're definitely not well-known elsewhere although John Jarrett (the killer) is becoming more and more well-known. He even had a cameo role in Tarantino's Django Unchained.
They are first class, though. They sell the terror and panic of the characters and it makes the whole thing nauseatingly realistic.
It is hard to watch the screen when Jarrett is torturing one of the leading ladies in his killing room. Not physically torturing, mentally. Not a drop of blood is spilt. Because of the acting.
The movie is also very downbeat and depressing, well the second half is.

Greg McLean lulls us into a false sense of security with an opening that borders on the tedious. We're introduced to the lead trio of friends at a langorous pace, McLean letting the ordinariness of pace and majesty of the countryside heighten our awareness that surely something must happen soon. And so when a very friendly and nice stranger turns up to help fix their car, offering them a lift, we're on high alert. However, the wait for anything to go wrong is very cleverly manipulated and stretched out for even more suspense, before our characters suddenly realise they're in horrifyingly deep trouble, and they might not make it out alive.
In rooting it all so firmly in normality, and some very naturalistic, non-'actory' performances from all of his cast, McLean makes this all feel horrifyingly close-up and possible, and the twisted normality of the villain and casual relaxed manner with which he inflicts horrifying events on the main characters makes it even harder to watch. Knowing that this was at least loosely based on a true story made it tough viewing for us, and a disturbing experience that will stick in the brain. A frightening protrait of appalling cruelty wrapped up in charm and normality.

Wow! Believe the hype. This film will have you cowering behind a cushion or under a blanket. The plot builds up at a slow pace and cleverly lulls the viewer into a false sense of calm. Then the action comes and shock after shock follows. My heart was pounding all the way through this film and I found myself screaming for the characters to survive. At points I didn't want to watch anymore but at the same time couldn't tear my eyes away. This is a fabulous film but not for the faint-hearted.

For a low budget horror film, 'Wolf Creek' is quite a decent little old school thriller, resistant of the superior 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre'. I'm not really a fan of torture films (i.e: blood for the sake of blood), and whilst there are admittedly a few little nasty scenes, there isn't a great deal of blood and gore.

Based on real life events, three young people set out on a hiking vacation to Wolf Creek in Australia, where they run into a crazed local murderer. For the first half, the movie is slow moving but it does draw you in and hold your interest. The characters are well developed during this period, which is refreshing because all to often in horror films I've found myself not really caring for the people on the screen, because we don't know much about them. The acting is good, with the three characters working so well together that you would believe they were friends in real life.

'Wolf Creek' is a decent pop corn horror, and a good one to watch with a group of mates, but not one I'd return to for repeating viewings on my own, not because it's so scary, I just think it's a film you could only watch the once.

I bought this film despite being told by a couple of mates that it was boring and a bit rubbish but i thought it was reasonably good.

The first 30 minutes or so of the film is quite boring but things start to improve when they go to explore a massive crater in the outback and its only when they get back to their car they discover that mysteriously their watches have stopped working and their car won't start. They then sit in their car and later some time during the night they see lights in the distance and a seemingly friendly man in a pick up truck stops. They explain their situation to him and he offers to give them a tow to his yard which is a disused mine site and try and fix their car and its when they get to his yard that things take a turn for the worse and the man is not as friendly as they first thought.

What makes this film scary is that its loosely based and inspired by the true events of the backpacker murders in the 1990s and in 2001 but even more scary is the fact that it could happen to anyone.

A reasonably decent film thats well worth a watch.
