One jerk said this review was not helpful because I compared it with Hills have eyes and did not give credit to the orig 'hills have eyes' of 20 years ago. GIVE ME A BREAK! Get a life. OK, with that past us, here's my take on THE FOLLOWING movie
A great horror flick is hard to write, so I have been lenient on them. With that said, OK, joining the family of movies with folks getting lost only to find gruesome fates, England jumps in with 'Wolf Creek'. If your interested I did the research for the following...
Wolf Creek = 2005 England
Wrong Turn = 2003 Canada
Hills Have Eyes = 2006 U.S.
Detour = 2003 Australia.
Four countries have their own versions of this plot. By date (see above) you can tell who copied who first. It seems that Wolf Creek at the end 'hints' at their story being true. It never comes out clear and says it. I think that's an 'AKA' Blair Witch plot tactic. Wolf creek was OK. It was worth the ebay buy and worth pay per view. $11.00 in a movie house plus $10 for popcorn candy and soda... I may have reduced the rating to below average. As the other ratings said , I agree. Scary and the protagonist is a sick S.O.B. If you saw any of the other 3 movies I listed (AKA-The Family) then you will like Wolf Creek. I don't provide spoilers so that's all I'll say. My opinion though, Wrong Turn was the best! Followed by Hills Have Eyes, then Detour, then Wolf Creek. If the price is right, SEE THEM ALL! You'll have fun like I did comparing them! Wolf Creek is 'suppose' to be based on true events. If that's true, I'll give 'extra credit'.
