Trivia

Supposedly, there was a back-story on Mick Taylor written in the original script that was supposed to be shown in this film; it revealed more details about Taylor's past explaining what made him become such a sadistic, violent serial killer. Obviously, the idea was scrapped and nothing about it was ever filmed. Later developments showed this information on Mick Taylor's history would finally be revealed in the series, Wolf Creek (2016).

Entertaining

This movie was not amazing but it certainly wasn't bad. It's pretty entertaining with some action, chases, and gore.

The only thing I have against this film was that the main character does really illogical things the majority of the time, which makes it a frustrating watch. I found myself getting upset over some things that seemed really common sense that the character would not catch on (and I usually don't get upset over these types of things). Because of his mistakes and lack of cleverness, the movie lasted as long as it did, or it would have ended within an hour into the movie.

Overall, it is a fairly decent thriller - especially if you're into some violence and gore.

The first Wolf Creek was better in my opinion.
