Primal
| |
Anja and four friends join anthropology student, Dace, on a journey to study a remote, ancient rock painting. Their excitement vanishes when Mel becomes delirious after skinny-dipping in the waterhole. Feverish, bleeding, confused, she physically and mentally regresses to a vicious predatory state. Mel has gone primal.
Mel's lover and friends realize they are the prey as she savagely hunts them down. Before they can escape another one of them starts to regress, posing a hideous choice; kill their friends or be killed by them. Their only hope of survival is through a cave, where Anja learns too late the meaning of the ancient rock art they came to study.

A little "Haute Tension" "Cabin Fever" action meets "Altered States"...original...I'd watch it!
kinda looks like Wolf Creak or High Tension
When the people turn they remind me of the vamps from 30 DAYS OF NIGHTS; which is a good thing. There looks to be a good amount of blood and gore, so my hopes are high with this one.
Hollywood can't make a decent movie with an original idea, yet every other country is pumping out some awesome movies! Fuck Hollywood.
I love a good Aussie horror movie and this one looks really cool! I can't wait to see this movie!
