علاء EL TARF 36 ح A trivial movie that triumphs evil in the end where a psychopath lurks tourists to kill them, the movie is presented as terrifying and scary but in the end it is a foolish and trivial movie and a waste of time where the opportunities are not equal at all a bad person versus good tourists... I advise not to watch, you will waste your time Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/25/25 Full Review Neil M A Brutal, Gritty Aussie Horror That Feels Almost Too Real Few horror films capture true, unrelenting terror quite like Wolf Creek. Inspired by real-life Australian backpacker murders, this film takes the well-worn "lost travelers in the wilderness" trope and strips it of all Hollywood polish, leaving behind something visceral, unsettling, and disturbingly plausible. The story follows three backpackers stranded in the Australian outback, only to encounter Mick Taylor, a seemingly friendly bushman who quickly transforms into a sadistic predator. The film’s slow-burn first half builds an eerie sense of isolation, making the eventual descent into brutal, unflinching violence all the more gut-wrenching. While it’s effective in its raw, documentary-like horror, the film plays things too straight at times, making it deeply disturbing but not always entertaining. Mick Taylor, played brilliantly by John Jarratt, is chillingly understated in this first outing, a villain who feels all too real. But for all its atmospheric dread, Wolf Creek sometimes lingers too much on suffering for suffering’s sake, making it more of a psychological endurance test than a thrilling horror experience. ✔️ Verdict: A deeply unsettling and well-crafted horror, but its ultra-realistic tone makes it a tough watch. An impressive, nerve-shredding debut—but not quite fun enough to warrant full marks. ⭐️⭐️⭐️½ Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/25 Full Review Mia P Such a bad movie why tf did the dumb idiots have no survival instinct they could have survived IF THEY WERENT SO STUPID but yeah overall scary asf terrible do not recommend they are such bloody idiots you think they would’ve just been smart and killed him in one go but nooo they had to be stupid omg I’m absolutely infuriated with the general dumbness of these people ik it’s a movie but OH MY GOSH.

Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/28/24 Full Review Avril C Wolf Creek is a truely horrific and haunting movie. You find yourself pulled into the fear and horror felt by the backpackers as they are hunted, and the environment of the Austalian bush becomes its own kind of melevalant presence which adds to the overall feel of the movie, I will admit however that this movie does not capture the intended humer of the character of Mick Taylor as well as the second movie. But overall this has become one of my personal favorite movies. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/13/24 Full Review Jeremy A Not an awful hillbilly kidnap tale. Expected more from the ending. 3* Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/27/24 Full Review Audience Member It’s hard hitting yet with rehashed themes and plot. But it’s not the plot itself that’s the main draw of this film, it’s the portrayal of a sick, cruel and twisted villain by John Jarrett that makes the film. Even that laugh and his comments of sexual innuendo will make you very uncomfortable. That’s the whole reason this film exists. It’s not feel good entertainment or a unique and complex plot. It’s minimalist horror designed to get a specific response. For that, it’s perfect. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/27/24 Full Review Read all reviews
