Some people don't like this movie already, what's not to like? Shot for 3 million, more than Wolf Creek (1 million), shot with the same cameras as Wolf Creek and unique story for an Australian movie.
Basically the movie's about 4 people, presumably science geeks, as they try to find the extinct Tasmanian Tiger and the lead girl's sister, who presumably drowned 8 years ago. What i did like about this film, not the sex scene, but the build up to the on and off screen violence but the lack of music is what doesn't make this film come to life like many others. Nerida Tyson Chew, who we have heard from the "Twisted" series one and two, tries more subtly to put his music through noises, like Francois Tetaz did in Wolf Creek. Jody Dwyer shot the movie a bit too stylish, with the camera looming in on more close up shots, feeling a little too claustrophobic.
Leigh Whannell's character (Matt) was the most quiet character out of the lot, which i didn't like at all, Nathan Philips character (Jack) was the most offensive but the most funny of the pack, the Ruth and Bec characters who go with them, they do alright, but Bec dies too quickly. The cannibals of the town give a good performance across the board, enjoying some good raw meat, courtesy of Justin Dix, who did some nice makeup effects on this show, if put into the right direction, could be the next John Carl Buechler.
The ending of Dying Breed is a strange one but nonetheless a shocker, which it felt like it had a few too many endings, but once it did end i felt better because the little girl in the film was creepy. Not everyone will like this film, but i'm a supporter of good Aussie films and this one goes on my shelf in 6 months time, good work.
Rated MA15+ for Violence, Gore, Language and a Sex Scene.
