Mike LeMar At the beginning, the two cops are driving off after giving Mick a ticket. I thought in two seconds: "Here comes a missile of a bullet from afar to the back of one of their heads, leaving the other to endure the car spinning out of control and off the road, leading him to be mangled, unable to move, but alive of course just so that Mick can come along to finish him off face to face as he helplessly begs Mick for his life." How he begs is telling him that he can make the charge against him go away. I thought, "Or he could just make YOU go away." Then Mick goes, "...Or...I can make YOU go away." As for unnecessary gore, I'm talking about chopping the guy's body all up into every little segment he possibly can once he kills the young couple. Gore, like this, for example, isn't scary. It's just gross. And also pointless, because we get it: he's dead; so move on.

Movie Goer In a long time I hadn't been as excited about seeing a horror movie as I was when starting to watch Wolf Creek 2. The movie starts in a peaceful pace with two hikers roaming around the Australian outback.I absolutely think that this film achieves the same suspense and terror as the first film (Wolf Creek - 2005), and in my opinion is just as good. Without spoiling anything, the very first scene of the movie grabs the viewer right in with it. The scene is also one of the best opening scenes I've seen in a horror movie, with the amazing performance of John Jarratt, who fits the role of his character better than I could've ever imagined.In conclusion, if you dig horror movies, you won't be disappointed after seeing this one. Definitely check it out.

ericrnolan Is "Wolf Creek 2" (2013) a well made film? Yes. It's exceptionally well made. Would I recommend it? I'm not sure.I'd rate it a perfect 10. Its technical expertise in undeniable. The cast is roundly excellent. John Jarratt is absolutely perfect in the role he seems born for. He's so effectively menacing as this film's serial killer that I think I'd find it unnerving even meeting the actor in real life. The only other actor I think I can say that about is Ted Levine, who so indelibly portrayed Buffalo Bill in "Silence of the Lambs" (1991).Ryan Corr is damn perfect, as are the actors in smaller roles. I think Shannon Ashlyn portrays terror better than any other actress I've seen. She isn't just a horror movie "scream queen;" her performance was so skilled that she rises above such a trite label. (And I've seen a lot of horror movies, people.)It's extremely well directed. The conclusion of an action sequence involving a truck must have looked downright stupid on the page, but damn if Greg McLean doesn't make it plausible and shocking.The entire movie is gorgeously shot. It was enough to make me want to visit Australia … if the story didn't make want to stay the hell away from Australia.I just get the impression that some movie studio planned to produce a generic, derivative slasher movie … but just inexplicably employed the best creative talent available for all aspects of its creation.Now, about my reluctance to recommend this … Please understand that this film is incredibly dark, even by horror movie standards. At times it was just too much for me. I actually stopped playing this on Netflix several times to "take a break with something lighter" by watching "The Walking Dead." Yes, you read that right.The story depicted is just brutal. There are very few movies that are too dark for me … I think I could count them on one hand. (And one was 2005's original "Wolf Creek.") And this film is just so masterfully made that its victims seem like real people suffering — something at which the "Saw" films and various other slasher movies rarely succeeded.I honestly think it might have been so "good" that it went past the point of entertaining me. Can I honestly recommend a movie that I felt the need to switch off?You make your own call. Again — this is exceedingly dark material, even by horror movie standards. But if you think you're up to it, watch it.

santiagocosme I know comparisons are always a bad thing, but being the follow-up to a movie, you cannot help but to compare Wolf Creek 2 with its predecessor. As a general note, I still remember how I enjoyed the first one. The fact they claimed it was based on true events created that extra bit of interest that got me hooked right away. Unfortunately, in this sequel, they re-use this claim, but it just doesn't work. The bad guy has now become even more evil, an out of this world good shot and a man with as many resources and tricks as Mcgyver. It makes it simply impossible to believe that anyone like this has ever existed. At least, from the protagonist point of view. As for the story, I found it a little boring that it turned out to be a chase between the bad guy and a young chap during the entire movie. I watched it all but I kinda of felt like stopping the movie several times. Honestly, if you do not see this movie, you will not miss much
