Ratings and reviews

This was great! An Australian horror movie (doesn't make the location be the pivotal point of the story), a protagonist with some strong resolve, and the antagonists are wildly insane, Lola's character in particular is a wonderful villain. Really well shot, good choice of soundtrack, and some clever misdirection with the sound design creates some teeth clenching atmosphere. Recommend for those that enjoy the mild grindhouse horror movies!

Quite a Good FILM the young bird and her dad are 100/crazy

Australian horror film very cool watch the trailer
