Seeking the real Australia, German backpackers Rutger and Katarina hitchhike off the main tourist route to the remote, awe-inspiring Wolf Creek crater—also the hunting ground of psychopathic pig-shooter Mick Taylor: the last man any Outback traveler wants to meet. After attacking their tent in the middle of the night, the crazed bushman pursues his prey in an epic, white-knuckled rampage across hostile wasteland that pushes his victims to the brink of madness. But when Mick locks onto his target nothing can stand in his way—and anyone who denies him his playthings will have to replace them. As nasty and savage as its predecessor [...] re-establishes Mick as one of the great modern horror villains. -Fangoria One of the best horror films I have seen in quite a while and possibly the best of 2014 so far. -John of the Deads Horror Flicks Reviews McLean and co-writer Aaron Sterns have crafted a very different beast; a bigger and bolder film that heads in a very different, very exciting direction. -Switch.au Number one, Australian Box Office Winner: Best Screenplay Madrid International Fantastic Film Festival WOLF CREEK: ORIGIN - The prequel novel that goes back to where the madness began. The wide open outback offers plenty of space for someone to hide. Or to hide a body. When wiry youngster Mick Taylor starts as a jackaroo at a remote Western Australian sheep station, he tries to keep his head down among the rough company of the farmhands. But he cant keep the devils inside him hidden for long. It turns out hes not the only one with the killer impulse – and the other psychopaths dont appreciate competition. Is Cutter, the stations surly shooter, on to him? And what are the cops really up to as they follow the trail of the dead? In the first of a blood-soaked series of original WOLF CREEK prequel novels from Penguin Books, the cult films writer/director Greg McLean and horror writer Aaron Sterns take us back to the beginning, when Mick was a scrawny boy, the only witness to the grisly death of his little sister. ORIGIN provides an unforgettably bloody answer to the question of nature vs nurture. What made Mick Taylor Australian horrors most terrifying psycho killer? Your expectations will be flayed [...] Typical scene-for-scene novelizations can only pretend to the kind of creativity found here. -Fangoria One of the best serial killer novels out there [...] Destined to be considered a classic in future years.” -Scaryminds Brutal. -Jack Ketchum ________________________________________________________ Many thanks from Aus, and Happy New Year to all.
