This new adaptation of Kenneth Cook's classic Australian novel will tell the story of John Grant, a young schoolteacher who descends into his own personal nightmare after being stranded in the small outback mining town of Bundanyabba. Provocative, morally complex and brilliantly realized, Wake In Fright is guaranteed to stay with viewers long into the night and - possibly - for years to come. Written by AnonymousB
As usual, casting and directing by Aussie filmmakers is excellent.
But watching one episode of this was about as fun as being stabbed repeatedly in the throat .
I found it so incredibly depressing on every single level that I couldn't recommend it in any way for any reason, you know?
It was just so dark and so horrible.
Don't put this stuff in your head if you can help it.
Also :: strongly recommend people in alcoholism or recovery don't watch !!! Massive trigger warnings !!
