Holy hell, THIS MOVIE SUCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I honestly was so bored on this one, I was more interested in looking at the rack of the REALLY hot girl sitting next to me [Eek!]

For the first 3-4 reels of this, you get mostly character introduction.....this lags on so long, some people walked out early. During the rest of the movie, the "horror" scenes were so drawn out, they actually got most of the audience laughing. Trust Me, STAY away from this one. This is probably worse than Spanglish. The best parts of this are in the trailer.

Greco Factor on the movie: 5 for the longer haired girl
Greco Factor on the girl sitting next to me: 9.5

Movie .5/10 (THIS SUCKED)

The only reason why this film got so much attention is that it was based on the actual backpacker murders (so they say...), particularly one where a British guy was shot by some local in the middle of no where and his girl friend escaped, very weird story. But that was just used for marketing hype. The film had nothing to do with that.

I screened this as part of the previews I do for the Melbourne International Film Festival otherwise I wouldn't come near it.

Terrible and pointless.

It's getting alot of attention here just because Tarantino's name is attached to it I'm sure.

Haha its funny u say that even tho tarentino had nothing to do with the film in aussieland.
If his imput was in the film it might not of sucked as bad.

I think the only thing he had to do with the film is that he saw a preview and liked it, and some how his name got attached to it.
