I just watched this movie the other night. It was chilling. Everything seemed so real. It definitely made me not want to travel lol. It did have a 70s vibe to it. Pretty intense.
 
Like there was anything I couldn't find to download :lol: Already found it, babe ;)
 
RENT IT! I know we love our downloads, but if you can't find Wolf Creek anywhere to download, you should totally rent it, because it's definitely worth it :nod:
 
Thanks, babe :kiss:

AND YES, DO THAT :love: It's fantastic, great cast, great script and great directing.
 
It sounds really cool. I'm putting this as priority on my to-watch list. ;)
Beautiful opening post, by the way.

It's not about people dying every 10 minutes, it's all about the actual plot and how we connect with those characters, and with the situation they're going through. The movie slowly builds up the idea that they are trapped and they have no place to run... it's nerve wrecking. I think Wolf Creek might have affected me more than I thought it would because Ivan Milat was one of the first serial killers I read about. I didn't expect the movie to have as many similarities with Milat's story as it did, and watching it gave me the same feeling I had when I was reading about the case. As you said, it's a difficult movie to watch, but anyone who's a fan of the genre should definitely check it, at least once.
 
I feel that Wolf Creek is one of the true disturbing horror movies today because it gets you heavily acquainted with the main characters, making their plight that much more scary. It uses a lot of common fears: fear of the unknown, fear of strangers, etc and it works effectively. It's got a real 70's gritty horror movie feel. I liked it, though it's difficult to watch, even for a horror fan like myself.
 
I'm sure I cannot possibly be the only one who thinks this movie is amazing. The suspense, the horror... it actually made me feel as excited and shocked as I feel when I watch the good old horror movies. It's intense, heartbreaking and painfully real. A must watch to anyone who truly likes the genre.
 
The thrill is in the hunt.

"It was supposed to be the vacation of a lifetime in the Australian Outback - full of fun, sun and adventure. But what happened to a trio of twenty-something backpackers took a wrenching detour into the depths of unrelenting terror. Based on true events, "Wolf Creek" is the haunting story of their unthinkable ordeal - a mounting white-knuckle nightmare so real it was destined to become horror legend. "Wolf Creek" is a startlingly intense motion picture experience of rapidly escalating dread and suspense. At the 2005 Sundance Film Festival, the film - written and directed by Melbourne's Greg McLean - was acclaimed as a daring, original blend of visually hypnotic thriller with unbearably scary movie. The chillingly believable events begin as freewheeling, college-aged pals Liz, Kristy and Ben head out for a holiday hike in stunning Wolf Creek National Park to see its mysterious meteor crater. When they return, their car won't start. Trapped in the vast emptiness of the wilderness - all they can do is wait for rescue. Luckily, as night falls, along comes colorful local bushman Mick and his massive truck, offering a tow to safety. But as the sun comes up the next morning, it becomes shockingly apparent that Mick has no intention of fixing their car or letting them leave the Outback...ever again. As Liz, Kristy and Ben search for any conceivable way out, "Wolf Creek" plunges towards an unforgettable climax."
