Review of Wolf Creek

Wolf Creek (2005)
2/10
boring, uncreative, boring, pointless and soporific

Excellent anti-horror film. I've seen quite a lot of bad and cheap horror movie, but this one is just so bad that it will keep me away from the genre for a while.

First of all: it is boring as hell! The public has to endure 1 full hour (I checked during the projection) of crappy dialogs (oh, look, it is going to rain...) and never ending sequences to explain one single thing: The protagonists are just usual young people.

Eventually they get into trouble, but they are so stupid that I couldn't have any empathy for them. Actually, I just wanted them to die quick so I could get out of the cinema and make something of my day.

There is nothing to take out of this flick: Neither the plot, the acting, the dialog nor the violent scenes. I hoped naively for some original ideas, but this film just thrives on bad clichés. There is absolutely no cinematic or creative interest here. Music, acting, script? Nope. Worst of all: it fails at giving this expected chill during the brutal sequences. The rhythm of the story is just the best part: absolutely sllllllllllooooowww.

The only thing that made me smile, is the character of the killer. Once.

I'm surprise of the score of this movie, since consensus after the projection was of a rather dull piece of cinema .
