I never liked 'Wolf Creek'. The first half seemed to drag, with a bunch of the usual kids just kind of wandering around, waiting for the brutal pay-off, which didn't seem to actually pay-off when it came. I watched it twice, hoping that I'd missed something initially, because I could tell the makers were going for that atmosphere of bleak dread I usually have affinity with. But I just couldn't get into it. I might check out the sequel, though.

'Martyrs' is a whole other realm, so much better in the endurance horror stakes and more besides.
