Leave it to me to report on flicks we haven’t covered in years. No, literally.
COFFIN ROCK, which hits VOD today via IFC Films, is an Aussie thriller from producer David Lightfoot, who brought us the exceptional WOLF CREEK, as well as the criminally dumped on (distributively speaking) killer-croc picture ROGUE. The flick is directed by feature first timer Rupert Glasson (TERATOMA, REAL THING), who also wrote the script. Check it…
This tense psychological thriller tells the story of a woman unable to conceive a child with her husband, despite years of trying. In a desperate and drunken mistake, she sleeps with a young stranger. Determined to prove his paternity, his intentions soon become terrifyingly psychotic and the young woman finds herself at the centre of a psychological and brutally physical battle which she must win if she is to survive and have the family she longs for.
Oh the wonders of alcohol!
Seriously, I’m a big fan of both WOLF CREEK and ROGUE. If Glasson can team up with David Lightfoot to create something comparable in quality, I think we’ll all be damn happy to see it!
Lisa Chappell, Terry Camilleri, Robert Taylor, Geoff Morrell, Sam Parsonson, Jodie Dry, Joseph Del Re comprise the relatively small cast.
