Covered in blood, feverish, and confused, she spirals into the realm of the spiritually unwell and rapidly regresses into vicious predatory state- only recognising her surrounding friends as a new and enticing source of food. She has turned primal and will stop at nothing to satisfy her hunger.

An awesome Aussie horror film takes the concept of dingos and uses it effectively in this horror film. 6 friends go to a rare rock painting but when one accidently awakens an anchinet evil it infects the water nearby and one is turned into a dingo cannibal after a swim that attacks the others for food and to feed its master in the cave. The acting is well done by the leads but some of the supporting cast are average to awful in a cheesey kind of way. The direction sets up the action well with suspenseful scenes, moving drama moments and very gory bloodshed. The effects are well done on the low budget but this is a very strong film loaded with blood and gore plus some graphic deaths so anyone who is not into bluckets of blood and gore better sticks to the golden oldie films as once the blood start to fly it never lets up. A decent ending helps a lot as well. Def recommended to horror fans and this film is proof that Aussie horror can be decent when we put more then half an effort in.
