Searching the Australian outback, a group of friends out looking for a legendary animal instead stumble upon a group of deranged cannibals selling their victim's unused body parts and try to avoid becoming part of their spree.
This was a pretty troubling and overall mixed affair. Among the numerous big flaws here is the fact that barely anything at all really happens in this one which draws the viewer in, where the majority of time here doesn't come off as enjoyable. A lot of this here is due to the group were forced to spend all the time with, who are an utterly annoying group that are completely unlikable that really wouldn't be friend as the wild, out-of-control jerk really shouldn't be with them as he would've prove tall that trust worthy in real-life. Acting like the stereotypical he-man macho jerk that has to be the leader of everything, bosses and beats-down everyone into seeing things his way and is such a general pain that he really wears himself out rapidly. That also plays a huge part of the film's first half pacing problems as not only is spending time here excruciating but their other antics are even less so, wandering through the endless miles of forest in their jeep or staying at the motel with the locals don't really have any really enjoyable sections. It's all filled with really uninteresting moments that simply drag this along, at a really slow pace due to these parts. There's also the rather troubling part here that all this manages to hold off the actual attacks until so late in the film that there's barely anytime here where the family actually goes about attacking them which causes the film some really troubled times here as there's so little time here spent with the main purpose of the film being them being stalked yet that can't happen with the film set-up the way it is. Even more troubling here is that the motivation for it all is yet another cliché of the inbred psychos looking for purity outside the clan which isn't all that original or unique and takes a lot of fear out of the family. These big flaws are damaging enough that the few positives here aren't enough to really make a dent, although they are noticeable. The film's biggest plus here is the rather fun and charged second half, where after they get past the dangers with the family and finally realize they're being chased as there's some really chilling work in the atmospheric forest as the first encounter by the cave where they encounter the cannibal patriarch who begins munching on the victim in the bushes the guide hikes them out through the forest into the dark, trap-filled mine and then the great encounter on the other side of the mountain. From finding the mutilated body of the guide alongside the remains of their friend and then encounter the shack in the woods where they have the gnawed bodies and skeletal pieces left behind there which sets up the truly chilling chase and eventual confrontation on the bridge which gives this some really fun times here. The only other enjoyable art here is the film's blood and gore, which not only come from the opening attack on the original member but the few small, bloody attacks here. These here make this enjoyable enough, but the flaws are just too detrimental.
Rated R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, Brief Nudity, sexual content, a rape scene and graphic violence against animals.
