I agree, John Jarrat as Mick isn't a particularly scary character at all but in an odd way this works, in the sense that he really could be some guy that you bump into on a back-packing trip.
Characters... what is this insistance that people have, that characters in a film have to be "likeable"?
I don't get it. Is it more satisfying to see a string of people sliced and diced if you actually like them? Conversely are you happier to see people die if you don't like them?
I quite enjoyed the film myself, I enjoyed its refreshing lack of American polish.
