Night of Fear (1973)
4/10
Obscure, and disturbing at times
5 December 2018
Warning: Spoilers
NIGHT OF FEAR is an extremely obscure Aussie horror flick, one that's of interest as it predates the likes of a certain Tobe Hooper cannibal movie as well as WOLF CREEK. The story sees a woman falling into the hands of a goonish psycho living alone in the wilderness, and trying to escape from him. Even at 50 minutes the running time comes up short here, so there's random padding in the form of repetition and a trailer within the movie itself. There's virtually no story and the performances are rather shrill, but the film does have some grubby moments and the sight of the killer playing with a bloody skull is rather disturbing.
