Aussie yawnfest. Decent acting and nostalgic, but unentertaining.
Spoilers below:
This is the kind of movie a 12 year old would write. A family goes vacationing and encounters a bunch of unfriendly and creepy townsfolk who are mean to them for no reason at all and a particularly creepy gas station guy who stalks them just to be a peeping tom. Then, all of a sudden at the end: Bigfoot. Why? Well, because it's supposed to be spooky, I guess. Wow. Just no. People who like "freaks torment random people" movies like "The Hills Have Eyes" will hate it, and people who like Bigfoot movies will hate it. Who is this movie even for? Skip it. I give it an extra star because the acting was miles above Troll 2 calibre and the editing seemed pretty competent, too. But nothing will save a story this bad.
