Dying Breed

Review

by Ruth Hessey

Another 'men's group' film which twists the rules of classic buddy culture is the new Aussie flick Dying Breed. It certainly doesn't stray from the classic horror format -- wilderness, witless city folk, beastly male predators who eat people's faces and torture nice young girls... It's text-book gorefest. Give it a miss if you don't like blood.
