Full Plot Details

Dying Breed interweaves the two most fascinating icons of Tasmanian history: the extinct Tasmanian tiger and "The Pieman" (aka Alexander Pearce) who was hanged for cannibalism in 1824. Against all odds, Pearce escaped from the most feared penal settlement of the British Empire - Sarah Island - and disappeared into the impenetrable forests of Western Tasmania. Seven convicts escaped with him, yet Pearce was the only one that emerged... along with chunks of human flesh in his pockets. The legend of Pearce was born. An extinct species... a long forgotten legend... both had a desperate need to survive; both could now have living descendants within the Tasmanian bush. Many sightings of the tiger have been reported. Many hikers have gone missing. Hundreds in fact. Zoologist Nina is convinced there are still tigers remaining in the Tasmanian wilderness, and she has proof - a photograph of a paw print snapped by her sister just before she met with a fatal accident in the bush eight years before. Unable to attain funding for an expedition, Nina fears her wish to finish her sister's work (and perhaps lay to rest recurrent nightmares she has about her sister's death) will never happen. Her partner, Matt, manages to persuade an old mate Jack to help finance the trip - at a price. Jack brings along a girlfriend, Rebecca, who uses the trip as an escape from her stifling real estate job. On their quest to find the extinct tiger, the group venture deep into isolated territory and into the domain of "Pieman" descendants. "Sarah" is a small township that passionately upholds its cannibalistic heritage in honour of the convict patriarch that gave birth to it. It needs to stay hidden to survive... but it also needs fresh "stock" to breed. The four hunters become the hunted.

Movie Reviews

Urban Cinefile - 7/10 by Andrew L. UrbanGrisly as it needs to be, Dying Breed is nevertheless quite a sophisticated horror film, layered with elements and peopled with leading characters who are more than stereotypes, thanks also to top performances.
Cinematical - 7/10 by Scott WeinbergIf you're looking for a horror flick that wants to give you a 'you are there -- and it's freaking miserable' vibe, this one should fit the bill quite nicely.
MovieTime, ABC Radio National - 6/10 by Ruth HesseyIt's a textbook gorefest. Give it a miss if you don't like blood.
Eye for Film - 3/10 by Anton BitelIf Geoffrey Hall's cinematography is eerily beautiful, capturing the isolation and subdued menace of the Tasmanian hinterlands, then there is little else in Dying Breed that, to quote protagonist Nina, "nobody's ever seen before".
User Review - 10/10 by Sherwin Fan action. . . . suspends . . . . movie . . . it great. . .
User Review - 8/10 by Brody M1 of the very few After Dark Horrorfest movies I truly enjoyed.Probably the best Ive seen out of them all
User Review - 8/10 by Jennie NBasically Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Deliver set in the forest of Tasmania, has one of the more downbeat endings I can remember seeing.
User Review - 8/10 by TTT C(***): Thumbs Up Not really anything original but I was entertained by it.
User Review - 8/10 by Sidney CThis movie was great. It beats Wolf Creek by a landslide. This was awesome. The ending was a bit disappointing and it delivered parts of other horror movies. American ones. I noticed some Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Sweeney Todd, The Reaping and Friday the 13th all rolled into one. So it's not really original, but its reference to a real convict criminal, murderer and cannibal made it seem more terrifying than The Blair Witch Project and Texas Chainsaw Massacre all in one. The gore made my stomach churn and the story was excellent. It seems that Australia is trying to start off with Ozploitation again, but I doubt they'll make anything that original and well written and shoot it into theatres. Personally, I'm not a fan of gore, I more of a suspense guy. That's what made me hate Wolf Creek. But this movie was excellent. The movie really makes you feel like you're shut in and have nowhere to run, but it's much more than Friday the 13th. Tasmania is a much bigger place and that town had far fewer people. There's nowhere to run, everywhere to hide. 80%
User Review - 8/10 by Jack MLet me say first that this was yet another cliche horror movie, a group of people wander of and find a bunch of murderers. But unlike alot of those movies this was actually quite good. For and independant Aussie horror movie i really enjoyed it. Although the ending was lacking alot, it was still a good movie. It kept me interested which was good and want you want in a good horror movie it had plenty of blood and gore. The actors played there parts fairly well, though i had one issue if they were all Aussies why didnt they have Australian accents? Well i was actually planning to go to Tassie for a holiday in June, bugger that.
