Wake in Fright Reviews

never going to Australia

A poster child for just saying no. Hunt scene was deeply unsettling. Pleasence was good, the story was just so off putting.

A very slow and boring movie about alcoholism. The kangaroo hunting scenes are unnecessarily brutal and lengthy.

The character was already open to corruption but it was well presented in this movie. It's a good movie for the 70s. It was nice that they explained the kangaroo scene etc.

intense and unsettling, had me on edge, but just made me want a beer for the entirety

A brutal and nihilistic depiction of Outback life, including toxic masculinity, reckless drinking, ruthless hedonism and kangaroo hunting
