When Wolf Creek started production, they probably didn't give a flying fuck about us seeing it here in America.
hmm - i doubt that - given the massive Yankee dollar. . .

but, the cultural issues that make High Tension French and Wolf Creek Australian are clearly an issue for some American audiences.

my only objection to Wolf Creek - which was quite brutal and struck me as closer to films like the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre than Hostel - was the stupidity of the two women - they just kept putting themselves back into trouble

but i did think the Aussie Serial Killer was really disturbing and the second woman's death was really a shock
