Two Heads Creek

Saw this at Monsterfest, nice locations and good for a low budget Aussie laugh. Definitely won't be some peoples piece of cake but the filmmakers did a good job. The social aspects were a bit on the nose at times but overall good.

You know you're in trouble when you see a movie at your local cinema on opening weekend and you're the only patron in the theatre. This movie does try it's best being a horror/comedy but it fails (and I LOVE those types of movies). The ideas are there but the acting is that hammy and the film reminded me of Welcome To Woop Woop (where the film tried so hard to be offensive to be funny). There were a few good laughs but that acting was dreadful I sort of felt ripped off paying $14 to see it.

The opening credits indicate that mayhem will ensue.

A British butcher and his sister find out that their Polish- born mother actually adopted them when they were young. They go to Australia to meet their birth-mother. When they arrive at her village, the story really begins...

Everything is played 100% for laughs, so I wouldn't even call it a "horror-comedy", like the "Evil Dead" series. But it has dark themes involving immigration and there are nods to "Psycho." The Australian and Polish stereotypes are more likely to offend people than the carnage.

I've never seen any of these actors before, but their performances are all superb. And there is even a musical interlude. Watch the mid-credits scene at the end. 8/10

It did start off ok then started to flag,then it nosed dived fast it could of been saved if there had been some humour I almost turned off once the singing started ! (And I don't necessarily think it would of been a bad thing )

In the tradition of Peter Jackson's Brain Dead and Meet the Feebles comes this aussie charmer. Expect lots of gore in the second half, and over the top performances with broad humour. Grab a few 4X beers and grubs and have a good night in. The first 15 minutes is a little refrained, but it picks up after that.
