Plot – Spoilers:
Couple of Brit girls, Liz and Kristy accompanied by their Aussie friend Ben are journeying across the picturesque outback emptiness and stop over at the Wolf Creek crater.
As the local guy, the onus is often on Ben to figure things out, as the girls gang up to highlight his every fuckup. As it turns out, their car won’t start and they’re left to spend the night outside the incredibly dark and eerily lonely crater. Just then, friendly Mick turns up in his truck, offering to help fix things back at his camp. And so they allow themselves to be towed to camp.
The arrival of handyman Mick further emasculates Ben and he takes to sarcastic jibes to establish his city-boy superiority. The girls are also smug about the potency of their feminine charm and feel it’s good enough fuel to keep the boorish but useful Mick laboring through the night to get their car fixed. Not really.
the dumbest kidnapping victims ever meet the dumbest kidnappers in history in a badly written snooze fest with uncharismatic actors and a beyond generic score. 5/10
Great fun! Of all the horrors with a similar theme: people travelling; lost; broken down; ran out of fuel; stranded; etc. and usually of course unable to get a signal on their phone – this is one of the best!
Mick is a great character, truly heartless.
i liked it.
and a fun fact Taylor’s mining camp, which is called “Navithalim Mining Co.”, a semordnilap variation of “Ivan Mila[h]t
Love the wolf creek movies and web television series, can never get enough Mick Taylor outback hero lol
I just don’t understand why everyone seems to love this series so much. I don’t care for it, and can’t seem to grasp the magic everyone else claims to experience from this, or it’s sequel.
meh
Pathetic and sad 0/10
This is the one of my best thrilling movie I suggest to everyone to watch. It because this is based on true event. I’m very satisfied. 10/10 Nice.
Creator, admin, whoever runs or controls this site and is reading this: TYSM! Best movie website out there. Not just this movie but countless others I would’ve never encountered if it wasn’t for this site. Many, many hours of intrigue, shock, disgust, humor, perplexing flims. Thanks a million!!! ????
Hola administrador, bienvenido de mexico.
You make the best movie treasures.
Shit just got real when Mick Taylor says: See? Head on a stick!
John Jarratt and Cassandra Magrath acting is riveting
in the scene where he sticks a hunting knife into her lower back and
severes her spine – leaving her alive
and in shock and paralyzed from the neck down!
This is a classic here in Australia, everyone here knows this film. Also John Jarratts son goes to my school, such a shame his father turned out to be a rapist.
Not as impactful as I remember it to be the first time I saw this (the second one may even be better which saddens me) but John Garrett as Mick is one of the bad best guys ever – pure evil. Highly recommend the second film and TV series too.
Total rubbish movie
Really good movie. Thanks admin. I read that there is a second movie, gonna wait for that one.
That accent tho lmao Jesus… if it wasnt for the subs, i wouldnt have understood shit.
great movie part 1 and part 2! thx!
Great Aussie film. John Jarratt plays his role to perfection as do the two girls as a pair of airheads who would not have a clue. This film is loosely based on Ivan Milat, the backpacker killer who recently died in jail. I have not seen part 2 yet, hoping it will turn up here eventually. Thx EUM for including some Aussie classics.
love the Wolf Creek films,the second one is the better out of the two in my opinion. The series is brilliant too
Nice indie stuff thank you EDM 🙂
