Killing Ground

<I>Killing Ground</i> should be on all Australian Horror lists!

The film, which has elements of <I>Wolf Creek</i> and <I>Last House on the Left</i>, tells the story of two separate families vacationing in the same camping area, with flashbacks and flashforwards. Unfortunately for the two, they are/were terrorized by the same group of men who've been murdering visitors over some period of time.

The film takes some time to pick up, but it's very well-executed, and the terror that unravels is something that you'd read in a newspaper article. It's full of dread, and the torture scenes are flawlessly captured, giving viewers a front row seat to the sadistic terror as it unfolds. Of course, this is mostly due to some of the characters making terrible mistakes that leave them vulnerable, but it is what it is.

Over all, <I>Killing Ground</i> checks off every box as for why you should never go camping (in Australia), as many of these films tend to end in the exact same way (e.g. <I>Wolf Creek).
