Primal

The Australians make brilliant films, particularly their horror films. Josh Reed's Primal however, is the exception. It's utter rubbish. A good horror film is either good because of its originality or because it explores peoples genuine fears, so ten out of ten for originality but it doesn't really make up for it, that is unless you have ever been frightened of being raped by a 6 foot slug. It's not a comedy horror either. If you want a really good Australian horror and are scared of the outdoors, try Colin Eggleston's Long Weekend instead. Or read a book, do some Gardening, call your mother, anything but this.
