Just watched Wolf Creek the movie which is apparently based on a true story. However the only person who lived to tell the tale was a guy who was locked in a shed the whole time so how does know what happened?

Decided to have a look on the net to see if I could find anything out but there is nothing???

Is it based on a true story or just a Blair Witch type hype thing

supposedly its one of those things that means it actually happened but its portrayal in the film is 90% made up

oh right

why dont they say 'inspired by a true story' then or something?

at the end there is a little piece that says what the guy (Ben?) is doing now.

what is the point of that?

The line "based on true events" surely helps marketing the film, but it is misleading...


so its basically a load of bobbins then.

was a good film so why lie and have the piece at the end?

I was equally angry when I discovered that!
I did discover,however, that there were a lot of similarities with an Australian serial killer called Ivan Milat.
Apparently the film story is a bit of a mish mash between the two stories!

Can't say I enjoyed it much...some nice photography though...

Seeing as this is pistonheads, anyone know what black 4 door the killer chased him down that straight in?
Sounded mean as hell!
Mmm... aussie muscle
