WOLF CREEK, BLACK WATER & THE LOVED ONES Episode 5: Fair Dinkum! (Australia)

Send us a text

WoHos!

It's Australia week on the World of Horror Podcast!! Our all-watch this week is the 2005 slasher flick, WOLF CREEK. Mac watched the 2009 splatter film THE LOVED ONES,  and Mom watched the killer crocodile film, BLACK WATER. Which role did John Jarratt (Mick Taylor in Wolf Creek) turn down? Which role in a killer crocodile film did he accept? How many humans do crocodiles kill per year? How many alligator and crocodile films has Mac seen?

Notes:
It seems Mick Taylor was referring to war crimes the Australians committed in Vietnam and that he was a member of the ANZAC.

Palindromes are words that have the same meaning backwards and forwards, such as noon and radar. "Semordinilaps" are words that have different meanings read backward and forward such as stressed/desserts, diaper/repaid or in the case of WOLF CREEK, Navithalim Mining Company (Ivan Milat), kind of.

Crocodiles are not dinosaurs nor are they descended from dinosaurs. They are cousins of dinosaurs. Badass cousins.

What did we get right? What do you want to fight us on? Aw, WoHo's, let's not fight!

Some folks I missed in the Thanks and Refs Bit: Allen Hyde, The DiMattias and Quinn McLaughlin.

Next week, our all watch is BLACK CHRISTMAS. Mac is watching ANNA & THE APOCALYPSE, Mom is watching EL DIA DE LA BESTIA, and our very special guest is watching BETTER WATCH OUT.  Join us!
