      Music Videos I I'm generally a fan of Australian horror, even some that would probably be obscure to a lot of people. But this was pretty atrocious. Example 1: sometimes you can forgive the hand on the shoulder jump scare if it's done well. Here, after presumably approaching for a long time and somehow getting close enough unnoticed on a gravel surface, a friend places their hand on another friends shoulder for no apparent reason other than for a jump scare. It's nonsensical. Example 2: after a serious collision and narrowly escaping someone trying to kill them by stealing their truck, one of the protagonists falls asleep at the wheel somehow managing to weave his way down a narrow passage to the very edge of a large ravine, all while asleep this is, to the very point of it being impossible to turn around. That's before the truck of course decides it's going to stop switching on inexplicably. It's awful, but trying to find the positives I'd say the acting is ok, the cinematography is decent and probably better than it deserves. Oh and the lead actress is pretty gorgeous, but I'm really scraping the barrel with that. Terrible, terrible film… oh and I nearly forget, the first part of the film is essentially Jeepers Creepers, but worse. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/02/24 Full Review Audience Member It's not the best quality movie but the idea is interesting. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review darin c So awful that the producer should kick himself for a few years. The actors did what they could with what they were given and what they were given is a nonsensical, sloppy script that has no logic or explanation even towards the end. It's hard to believe that a movie with a cast of 5 could be such a piece of Aussie crap. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Road Kill, also known as Road Train, is a movie about a vehicle with a "ROAD TRAIN" sign on it that characters repeatedly call a road train but is actually a semi-trailer. It makes a bad movie annoying as well. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member The concept has potential (Duel meets Ghost Ship), but this poorly written, badly acted film lacks both suspense and interesting characters. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Slightly more entertaining and original than your average horror flick.

      Rory Meyer Empire Magazine Australasia For all of its potential thrills, Road Train barely manages to get out of first gear. Rated: 2/5 Nov 3, 2010 Full Review Louise Keller Urban Cinefile Fans of the genre will find some highlights in the gore department, while truckies will no doubt latch onto some of the trade's unique characteristics, Oct 16, 2010 Full Review Anton Bitel Eye for Film ...takes the simmering psychological tensions within a group dynamic, and sends a monster of a truck careening right through them, knocking events off their character-driven course and into the more genre-bound terrains of supernatural horror Sep 2, 2010 Full Review Read all reviews
