David Stratton At the Movies (Australia) Nov 14, 2008
1.5/5
It tries hard to be horrific and gruesome, even introducing a bit of fashionable torture near the end, but only the most credulous will find it genuinely scary. Go to Full Review
Paul Byrnes Sydney Morning Herald Nov 7, 2008
3/5
There is no civic responsibility in horror. You can insult whomever you like, so long as you make it scary. This one has a few good moments but not enough to rattle one's bones. Go to Full Review
Alissa Simon Variety Jun 10, 2008
Even by the low standards of other horror-movie victims, the foursome here seem blithely clueless, always splitting up for no good reason and running headlong into ambushes. Go to Full Review
Tim Anderson Bloody Disgusting Feb 16, 2009
6/10
Drawing on a pair of local legends, first time feature filmmaker Jody Dwyer along with Writers Michael Boughen and Rod Morris deliver a down-under thriller that plays out like an Aussie version of WRONG TURN. Go to Full Review
Steve Biodrowski Cinefantastique Jan 10, 2009
The setting is the island of Tasmania rather than the Australian outback, but after WOLF CREEK and STORM WARNING, any city folk stupid enough to wander this far off the track deserve whatever they get - and boy, do they get it. Go to Full Review
Ruth Hessey MovieTime, ABC Radio National Nov 7, 2008
It's a textbook gorefest. Give it a miss if you don't like blood. Go to Full Review
