With a friend having recently travelled to Australia to visit family,I decided to find a Aussie Horror title she could enjoy over Halloween. Searching on Amazon UK,I found a 100 acre Aussie Horror Comedy.
View on the film:
Down on the farm with the Morgan's, co-writers/directors Cameron Cairnes & Colin Cairnes harvest Ozploitation gore with uneven gallows humour. Stuffing the soundtrack with thigh-slapping Hicksploitation Aussie Country tunes, the directors give the Morgan's human meat grinding a grubby, dried blood and sand appearance which gets under the nails in the most grisly splatter moments. Hitch-Hiking a trio into the Morgan's business, the directors chop thick slices of black comedy from sheer over the top level of pain inflicted on the trio. Although the Horror-Comedy hits when dealing in Slap-Stick, the screenplay by Cairnes and Cairnes has an oddly dry tone, due to little time being given to build the Morgan's as a serious threat before the hit and miss darkly comedic one-liners roll out across 100 bloody acres.
