CANNIBALS, vampires, zombies, serial killers and man-eating crocodiles walk among us in a local revival of the horror movie genre.
They are stalking Australian cinema screens and DVD shelves in unprecedented numbers as the local horror film industry experiences a stunning revival.
Today brings us one of the latest home-grown horror entries, Dying Breed, starring Leigh Whannell, one of the stars and co-creators of the hit film franchise Saw.
Dying Breed melds two Australian legends, the Tasmanian tiger and an escaped convict who turned to cannibalism to survive.
Four friends venture deep into the Tasmanian bush in search of the elusive tiger, only to discover that the local populace likes to keep ancient traditions very much alive.
Good article! Australia has come out with some very good films. I really enjoyed SAW, as did tons of people, but enjoyed Wolf Creek immensely as well. Stay keeping us informed, Dr. Gore!!!
