Default New movie set in Oz outback - Wolf Creek

Just to put you off Oz even more, a new movie has been released in the UK called Wolf Creek. It's a horror shocker about two English backpackers and their Ozzie friend who drive off into the outback. Their car breaks down in a remote area, and they are "rescued" by a man who is initially very friendly, but later turns out to be a nutter.

A review at: http://www.timeout.com/film/82979.html

Bring your rose tints, you'll need them :scared: :scared:

Don't think I'll watch that - looks very similar to where I live, and sounds like a few of my neighbours! We don't have lines in the middle of the road.....or even bitumen for that matter - they aren't very FAR in the outback then?! LOL

It's based on him & the Falconio story. Looks good.

Wolf Creek Crater is about 180k,'s south of Halls Creek, about as far Outback as you can get, if this is where it's set. The road, if you can call it that, is just a track pushed through the scrub by a grader; when the road becomes impassable due to corrugations, wash-aways and bull-dust holes, the grader goes in and cuts another track. Not quite like Derbyshire!

Reputedly it's a meteorite crater, though scientists differ on that. Even the ones who think it is have different opinions on when the meteorite fell, which vary from several thousand years ago to 1910; some of the local people say they remeber their grandparents talking about it.

But another couple of hundred kilometers south lies one of the Kimberley's best-kept secrets, Lake Gregory, alternatively known as Gregory's Inland Salt Sea - and this place is one of the most breath-takingly beautiful I've seen anywhere in the world.
