GL84 While on vacation at a secluded Australian beach, a couple's behavior toward the environment and to the animals living there eventually riles them up enough to force them to attack the couple, turning the vacation into a literal, waking nightmare.This was an utterly atrocious effort that really has very, very little going for it. The biggest issue with this is the most obvious, as what was supposed to be a horror film is instead much more of a drama about an Aussie couple heading for divorce at extreme odds with each other that tends to dominate the film to the point of forsaking most other elements and putting them in the background. By focusing on their issues during the first hour, which includes their behavior toward each other as well as how he reacts to her obvious and growing distress at what's going on around them, to him acting like a prick and her getting shot down because he's a prick, this almost tends to make it seem like the animals are after them merely for their marital problems almost as much as their disrespectful attitudes. This one just becomes intolerable because of this wasted time before the animals start attacking with all of this nonsense that's supposed to make us like and care for these people when it does the exact opposite at urging for their swift and utterly violent demise within seconds of meeting them, yet continues on for as long as we're here with the couple, and moreso this affects the pacing here by just not doing anything remotely interesting at all. None of this is appealing or enjoyable, no one is really all that exciting to be around, and this is just endless and excruciating because of that. While it's nothing to get worked up over, there's some good stuff there on a recurring gag with a sea animal, fantastic atmosphere with the noises around them and howling off in the distance as well as some harrowing chases through the overgrown undergrowth in the woods. Still, this is all too little too late to mean anything as this was a complete waste.Rated R: Graphic Language, Violence, sexual innuendo and rampant violence against animals.

atinder (This is a Remake of Long Weekend (1978)The movies 93 % scene from scenes remake, with some twigs here and there in the movie. I was not fan of the 1978 movies at all, I found it very boring and dull, I thought the remake would be better, I do think remake was little better then the old one.I liked how they didn't didn't really drag the first 30 minutes and start movie faster pace the the fist movie, also enjoyed some scenes they added in this movie, I thought it was very decent scenes. The couple in this movie are not very nice people at all, the nasty one and another and mother nature, I could not get less if they were killed or attacked.The original had one think this movie never had was some good actors, Annoying but they could act unlike this actors who were really wooden in most scenes,The ending of the movie, I thought the ending original was funny, this one even funnier and bit more gory as well/

preppy-3 An unhappy couple in Australia--Peter (Jim Caviezl) and Carla (Claudia Karvan)--decide to go camping one long weekend in a remote wooded area near the ocean. Along the way Peter (accidentally) hits a kangaroo and casually shoots at birds within range. They argue and he wanders around a lot with his shirt off. That's about it until an abrupt change of events during the last 30 minutes.This film has goos acting by the leads, Caviezl looks good with his shirt off, has some gorgeous cinematography, nice music...but that's it. This is pushed as being a horror film but it's really just a domestic drama with horror kicking in during the last 30 minutes. The horror itself isn't particularly scary and doesn't make much sense. All this has going for it is acting, scenery and music--nothing else. I give it a 4 just for that.

johnlindheimer I just got done watching "Nature's grave" and just HAD to review it. It was 90 minutes of laughing,crying, pondering the meaning of life itself. No...just laughing. This nagging, bickering couple gets attacked by everything from ants to eagles, from snakes to sea-cows. And because the two main characters are so thoroughly dislike-able, nature's assaults on them will make you giggle and grin with fiendish delight as they get what's coming to them. Add in the stale dialog that would make the Pope weep, and the films low budget feel, this one has immense value as an UNINTENTIONAL COMEDY. The final scene was worthy of "Roadkill of The Year", as the beef was flying! (You'll be certain to replay that scene at least a couple of times.) All of that being said, there were some great performances put on by several animal actors in this one. The animal actors should've gotten higher billing than the humans that were involved in this three-ring circus.
