As promised today saw the arrival of the new and official trailer for writer/director Greg Mclean’s horror follow-up ‘Wolf Creek 2’. The outback-based sequel which arrives in Aussie theatres next February sees the maniacal murderer Mick Taylor (played by John Jarratt) sets his sickening sights on more unlucky backpackers. Having never particularly been a fan of the original from way back in 2005 the promise of more of the same, at least from seeing the trailer, isn’t an overly tantilising prospect. Ryan Corr, Shannon Ashlyn and Philipe Klaus all star in the sequel. Check out the new trailer below and see what you think.
“Lured by the promise of an Australian holiday, backpackers Rutger, Katarina, and Paul visit the notorious Wolf Creek Crater. Their dream Outback adventure soon becomes an horrific reality when they encounter the site’s most infamous local, the last man any traveler to the region ever wants to meet: Mick Taylor (John Jarratt).
As the backpackers flee, Mick pursues them on an epic white-knuckled rampage across hostile wasteland. Only one will remain to be dragged back to his lair to witness the true magnitude of his monstrosity. And if the last man standing is to have any hope of surviving where no one else has survived before, he’ll have to use every ounce of cunning to outwit the man behind the monster and become every bit as ruthless as the monster inside the man.”
‘Wolf Creek 2’ will open in Australia on 20 February 2014.
