Australian horror films are starting to arise.
cut was the first australian horror slasher film ever made, and has set the way for new ones. 'Undead' was a recent entry, and watch out for the new one 'wolf creek'. Its meant to be pretty good. Also coming out next year is 'voodoo lagoon'.
We don't get to make genre films in australia that much (the basic reason being they don't get backed financially), but I think we're catching on. If 'wolf creek' is as good as everyone is saying it is, there might be a bright future for horror films in Australia.
'Cut' I admit was pretty lame. But It tried something different in the aussie film industry, so I praise them for that. Plus it opened at number 2 in the hong kong and french box office, which is fantastic.
