One of my all time favorites.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Sophie (Anna McGahan) along with her BF (Oliver Ackland) and Wesley (Jamie Kristian) a male rival are headed via the back roads to a music festival when their automobile breaks down. They get a ride from Reg Morgan (Damon Herriman) who is driving the company truck of Morgan Brother's "Blood and Bone" organic fertilizer. Not too hard to figure the rest out.The film has some blood splatter scenes, but lacks the gore. This slasher film is in part dark comedy as Reg, is the younger partner brother who is insecure in what he does as well as being sexually repressed. While facing death, Sophie's boyfriend is more concerned about her infidelity, wanting to know the details of what she did, rather than being worried about the situation at hand.The film is a good concept, but comes off as going through the motions. Okay as a rental.Parental Guide: F-bomb, no sex or nudity. One scene of apparent self gratification.

Australian horror-comedy, 100 Bloody Acres starts off promising enough, but falls flat quickly as it falls into the trap of recycling past material. The film fails at both being a comedy and a horror; being cheap, tacky and clichéd, this film doesn't reach any height that a toddler couldn't.Quite a boring expedition into the 'Wild Australian Outback' with this mock of a Wolf Creek like killer. This film adds nothing new to the genres, whilst also being completely unoriginal in it's approach. Do yourself a favor and skip this film, as I'm sure you can find a better one with the same story.

100 Bloody Acres a great example of Australian film making, written and directed by the Cairnes brothers, it marked their feature length debut. The Australians have a long history of great quirky films that tend to offer something a bit different and this one fits right into that history! Its the story of a pair of brothers,Reg and Lindsay, who have an entrepreneurial spirit and the willingness to go the extra mile to get it right. They have a small business in fertilization, with a secret recipe to make your veggies grow! They take road kill and grind it up to give you Blood and Bones fertilizer, the thing is sometimes the road kill is bigger than a "roo! Reg comes across an accident scene, checking it out he realizes the driver is dead and hatches a plan for success. Driving back to the family farm, and production facility he offers to help some unlucky travelers on their way to a music festival, who have run into a bit of car trouble. He picks up the trio, Sophie, James and Wes, The boys go back into the back of the truck where the body is hidden and sophie rides shotgun with Reg. They pair begin to chat it up, as the boys in back find trouble. Reg delivers the group back to the farm where we meet his brother Lindsay, who is not too happy with Regs lack of fore thought in this latest scheme. Reg is desperate for his brothers approval, so he soldiers on but it isn't long before he has second thoughts and thats where things get really interesting. Is there music and love in the future for our travelers or will they be spread between the rows like so much manure??100 Bloody Acres is a great film! Its engaging, humorous and wrong! It has everything you need for a good time some weird sex, infidelity, sibling rivalry, a bit of good gore, hilarious action scenes and more! The film is extremely well written, and has a heart that I didn't expect. It reminded me a bit of Black Sheep in the feel and tempo of the film, but was something very different in story. I definitely recommend this one, its not going to have you jumping out of your seat but it will probably make you double over in laughter, while still giving enough tension and gore to appease your horror appetite! I am hopefully the Cairnes brothers will be offering up more goodies for us in the near future!*HeatherOmen* TheHorrorNation.net

At the Festival I saw this, many compared it to "Tucker & Dale", but I think that is not an accurate assessment. Both are comedies with horror elements if you will (or the other way around), but the way they are presented is more than different. Not to mention the facets of the characters involved here.Tucker and Dale is simpler, which is not supposed to be a judgment, I loved the movie. I'm just saying that I thought this is great in its own right too. The comedy has different, sometimes uneven, but therefor darker tone. It's a movie you have to be in the mood for I guess and I totally was. Thought almost every joke worked in this and the changes in pace were nice too (changes in genres too sometimes).
