Review of Dying Breed

Dying Breed (2008)
3/10
Something rotten
18 November 2008
I say 3, Dr K says 4. This was a stinker, we live in Tasmania and our relatives are far more bloody and disgusting than this tourist promo film. It starts poorly and continues in this vein. Although some early scenes are good the rest suffered from poor colour, story and direction. The ending was obviously tacked on to either extend or bring the rating up to some sort of "horror" level.

The change from 18th century Tasmania to a shots of a 2007 bridge with all it's safety features just grated. Also, us Tasmanians are rather particular, the open scene in the Pub is obviously in Melbourne Victoria, and the end scene with the police wearing Vic police caps stood out like dog balls.

If you want a silly movie you'll love this. When we saw it the audience of Tasmanians were sniggering. That Tas Tiger head was off the show, in reality they had small, very sleek heads, not some sort of Pit Bull head.
