Razorback

If you read the earlier post regarding Piranha, you'll notice that I forgot to reference this film...for shame!

Directed by LEGENDARY Australian filmmaker, Russel Mulcahy (Highlander & Highlander 2), we are treated to a gore fest the like of which the outback hicks of Oz had rarely witnessed before.

Razorback charts the story of a voracious, massive, wild Boar (well, he's clearly not house broken) who goes around killin' and eatin' folk. A few people try to stop him and there's a meat processing factory in the little town. Not much else to this story, really.

Fun Fact: the dvd has extra features, one of which is a featurette entitled; Jaws on Trotters.

This was Mulcahys' debut feature, the DOP was Dean Smeler (Mad Max 2) and rolling in at $5.5 million Aussie Dollars...whoof! Or snort snort as the case may be.
