i went to a talk done by sean byrne (he made this film) and he was saying how he was really influenced by carrie. he cited carrie, evil dead 2, misery and texas chain saw as influences. i love that there's a john hughes vibe to this too. i am a massive hughes fan. love his films to death.

but saying that, there's a lot of this type of stuff inherent in our culture albeit not this disgusting, or fuck, maybe even more disgusting and we don't really know about it. it was australian writers that first brought you saw. australia just got replaced with america because no one really imagines australia to be this fucked up. the psycho ratio is higher in your head when you think america.

interesting tidbit:
"I'm a huge Sam Raimi fan; particularly Evil Dead 2, which is such a wildly inventive use of a single location – and just the deliciously twisted, fun tone that film has. Structurally, Misery was a template for me in terms of screenwriting; it's another claustrophobic horror, where you've got a girl who is torturing a guy – but also the way that Misery cuts out to the Sheriff and his wife, for moments of light relief."

check out "not quite hollywood". it's a really good documentary about australian horror, exploitation and b-movies. it's a really interesting watch because you can see just how much their no holds barred kind of approach has really influenced north american horror and b-movies. they certainly have a lot more balls, and are a bit more open minded than american cinema though.

Yep, I saw Misery in that trailer too.

i've seen it. i agree with you. i did an australian cinema class for a semester and it helped so much because i got exposed to films that are not readily available even in australia. the truth of the matter is that american films dominate australian markets. it's the reason that films like saw and daybreakers are adapted into american settings as opposed to australian ones (where the idea and the whole concept originates). people, and australians themselves, would believe it more if the films were american and they would be more successful. i think over the last 5-10 years we've had some exceptional films come through. i'm a bit of an oldie. i know that america is not going to give me a film like wake in fright or picnic at hanging rock. i'm glad a film like wolf creek did so well because that is an inherent australian theme. the truth of the matter is that a lot of backpackers do get murdered here.

i haven't seen this yet, but i'm guessing it employs some american style theme because from the trailer those kids aren't wearing a school uniform, which is compulsory in australia.

i'm glad that the gender, and age as well, has been turned around from what it usually is: an old guy who lives in the bush and wears an akubra i.e. wolf creek, jindabyne etc.

Just saw it. Very good. Some scenes were VERY "what the fuck!?".
