At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

It's a widely exploited\explored idea to try and find answers to what happens to a soul once it's out of the physical body, the stress is on the soul being in this state of "out of", the state of undecidedness, unclarity, ambiguity, obscurity, blindness & uncertainty.2 things came to my mind after watching the film: 1.the saying that one is destined\doomed to repeat his\her history if it's not properly remembered 2."The Others" starring Nicole Kidman. I suggest u compare the two films.A careful & attentive viewer could accept the film as being about(or mostly about or,at least, preferentially about) Life & Death(capitals), like The Others for instance, & not about life & death. The latter is the case with virtually every movie nowadays; and that's OK; because it's natural(or "nature"); but it's not that important(in my view) because the latter(l&d) is a local perception while the former(L&D)- is a global one.

This was the most disappointing films I have ever seen recently. And I really hardly believe that people say goods things about this very bottom film! No reason to watch, even wonder. Be away from this one and don't waste your time with bad acting and nonsense dialogue. I don't know if you have seen Bodysnatchers -another Australian film- but this one's first 20 minutes will make you forget about this country's good examples. Awful and unnecessary. What made the people who rated with high points but they must have never seen a good movie. Two guys and two girls, a beach, a nomad guy and the rest is a question mark which makes you regret to spend the time you have. Sorry to use all these words but the only good thing about the film is ocean's great color and sounds of waves. Do yourself a favor and DO NOT rent this film.

A bunch of teens go out to an isolated beach for the weekend and find a bit more than the "good times!" they had planned. I was expecting this film, which was marketed as an Aussie teen slasher, to be bottom-of-the-barrel junk. Well, it wasn't a slasher and it was one of the better creepy films of the past few years. Taking its cue from 70s Aussie gems "Long Weekend" and "Picnic at Hanging Rock," (as well as several other low-budget American hits that will go unnamed here), this is a fresh and frightening little movie. It is well-acted (better than US teen horrors, anyway) and the middle half-hour of the film is actually quite frightening and doesn't skimp on the scares and eerie imagery. Unfortunately, the movie is a bit too ambitious for it's own good and leaves you thinking "huh?" in certain parts, but overall, I'd recommend this to anyone who likes psychological horror.

The teenagers Gary (Leon Ford), Brad (Charlie Garber), Emily (Lenka Kripac) and Tracey (Alex Vaughan) travel in a Kombi to a desert paradisiacal beach and spend the weekend together, the boys expecting to surf and have sex with the girls. When they arrive, they meet the older Zippo (Steve Le Marquand), and they have the sensation of Déjà vu with weird events, feeling that they had previously been in that place. Along the Saturday, they see that they are actually trapped in a nightmare."Lost Things" is one of the best surprises I have recently seen on DVD. The refreshing and original story has a great screenplay, direction and performances, basically in one location, three actors and two actresses. I started seeing this low-budget movie not paying much attention and I really expected a stupid teenager slash-movie, with lots of gore and naked women. I was completely wrong, and I found an intriguing story, following the pattern of a David Lynch film, and showing an absolutely different view of the Limbo. I saw in IMDb that this is the first feature of the unknown director Martin Murphy, and I really expect to see his next works. Last but not the least, I would like to congratulate this director, the writer Stephen Sewell, the actors and actress for their excellent performances and the crew that made possible this engaging little gem. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Férias Selvagens" ("Wild Vacations")
