Long Weekend
Directed by Colin Eggleston
Attempting to resurrect their failing marriage, Peter and Marcia set out on a camping trip to a deserted stretch of the Australian coastline in the hope that a long weekend in the sunshine will help them patch up their differences. They trample through the countryside, destroying everything in their tracks. However, their callous disregard for the environment soon becomes apparent when the animals start to seek vengeance. Can they leave, or will they be destroyed?
Their crime was against nature... and nature found them guilty.
Cast: John Hargreaves, Briony Behets

Watched this on the ANZAC Day long weekend weekend 🤣 perfect Aussie thrillers.
👍seen this movie years, years ago. I loved it then…and love it again. Australia setting with “thinner-meri-jig” English. . Aussies make me laugh the way they talk at times, shit this, shit that , ha.
I didn’t mind this movie, it was odd. Not really a horror as such. But worth a watch
The only good thing about this movie is the Australian scenery and the suspenseful end where the guy gets killed otherwise this movie is a heap of shit
It was an interesting slow burn psychological horror. Some horror movies give you likeable characters and you wait in fear if they'll die, and others give you absolute fuckwits that keep you waiting until they meet their maker. This is the latter, and a poetic one at that. Watch it for the set pieces, cinematography, and atmosphere; they're this films greatest strengths. Also it's got some good moments of suspense and, like many outback Aussie films to follow it, it's great at capturing the idea that nature and wildlife are a powerhouse to be reckoned with.
