A bride-to-be is invited to join her own fiancé's bachelor party on a remote property in the Australian outback. But as the festivities spiral into beer-soaked chaos, uncomfortable details about their relationship are exposed, and the celebration soon becomes a feral nightmare.

Stephen Romei

The Australian

It’s a strong addition to a recent wave of independent Australian horror-thrillers, following the critical and commercial success of Talk to Me, written and directed by Adelaide-based twins Danny and Michael Philippou.

Guardian

This production pushed me away much more than it pulled me in, ultimately leaving me aggrieved, withered and wondering what the point was.

Rated: 2/5

Bloody Disgusting

An audacious reckoning with identity told through a familiar scenario gone wrong. Borrowing a page from Wake in Fright, Clark and Weir’s feature debut examines heady concepts through confident filmmaking and subversion of tropes through horror techniques.

Rated: 3.5/5

Australian Financial Review

A poster for Wake in Fright, prominently displayed on a wall, has already given us an unsubtle hint where this weekend is heading.

Loud and Clear Reviews

Some scenes drag on, emphasizing points repeatedly, which slows the pace and detracts from the flow. Each scene is steeped in never-ending discomfort, while viewers hope for character redemption arcs that never arrive.

Rated: 3/5

Movie Squad (RTRFM 92.1)

Unrelentingly malevolent, in spirit and style. The pitch black comedy is threaded through as if by precise needlepoint. I loved it.

Rated: 5/5
