“The Dustwalker” strikes a strong horror pose. The affected residents are reminiscent of fast zombies meets Invasion of the Body Snatchers’ wailers retaining their hosts’ intelligence with a dash of possession. Go to Full Review

Par H @Parhwy 1d The Dustwalker (Dustwalker) (2018) is 96-minute-long Australian film I saw on Prime in March 2026. This film starts out interesting and slowly reveals the limits of its budget (and possibly its production). This should have been a much shorter film with no CGI. Such a shame because the first 20, 25 minutes is genuinely engaging. As the story and plot evolves with its special, weird rules, it gets so entangled in its own logic. Rules? The effected are bollards until they’re running; the effected are super-human until they’re bollards again or jump-scare merchants; the effected are aggressors until they’re victims; we have guns, we don’t use guns because the effected are people too (even when they are killing us)… I think the gun use issue may have been budgetary or a ballistics issue. It came across as dumb as bricks (especially white tshirt guy’s speech and beating the Dustwalker itself). And many more. Rewatch? No. Recommend? No. 4/10. See more Jonah @RT73758206 11/26/2022 It's eerily atmospheric with slow pacing and not-so-bad acting. The alien-creature is what you'd expect from B-movies: obviously/100% CGI. It's the kind of movie to watch when multitasking, I played games on my phone while watching. See more 09/26/2021 There's definitely a whole lot worse out there but this film made absolutely no sense. Decent camera work though. See more 06/22/2021 I created an account just to say this was the dumbest movie I've see in a long time. I've seen Jack&Jill, this might be worse. Do. Not. Watch. See more 05/01/2021 This movie is exactly like those awful Syfy or Asylum films! It's pretty amazing in that way (so expect that going in). The story, acting, effects, and direction are so poor, it's impossible to take this movie seriously or review it, critically. Yes, it is as bad as all the other low ratings say. See more 12/26/2020 Perfect bad-movie drinking game in 3… 2…. 1… drink! Drink! Drink! Let's cut to the drinking game chase. There is an over-abundance of characters saying other characters' names. Honestly. I don't think I've ever heard so much naming in a film, to the point where I reckon 10% of the scripted dialogue is names. Angela! Michelle! Michelle! Dean! Angela! Nathan! Bill! Joanne! Samantha! Bill! Samantha! Doc! Joanne! So many times! You could just play it that everyone drinks for every name, but I warn you this needs to be swigs of wine or beer or you'll be blackout drunk very quickly. A more complicated version would be to sweeps-draw names off imdb and to drink every time your character's name is used. You might be blotto, you might be sober… you'll never know until you watch it. Joanne! Has anyone heard from Angela? Angela come in! See more Read all reviews
