Családi kényelem serdülő lánnyal és kisbabával kontra aussie redneck állatok. Kegyetlen dráma, először két idősíkban, melyek párhuzamosan fokozódnak egy még intenzívebb tragédiába, majd a túlélésért folytatott kiszámíthatatlan küzdelem. Átgondoltan szerkesztett, audiovizuálisan minimalista. A hidegség és a nyugalom, amellyel a filmet elmesélik, még hátborzongatóbbá teszi. Az exploitation jelenetektől megkímélnek minket, mégis egy másik jelenetnél alig tudunk levegőt venni.

Solid forest survival hixploitation that, instead of brutality, relies on the work with the characters. After a relatively lengthy introduction, you really get to know the heroes (and to a lesser extent, the villains), whose behaviour, especially in the end, nicely deviates from the common horror clichés, which puts Killing Ground a a rung higher than your average B-movie production. On the other hand, it is nothing to write home about. 7/10

A very decent survival film by Australian filmmakers. At first, I was apprehensive, fearing it would be an Australian variation on American wannabe horror films about rednecks, but I was surprised several times over. The characters were unexpectedly fleshed out, the film wasn't built around graphic violence, the two timelines were handled very well, and I was really pleased with the ending. I just wonder if Sam had her "swiss army knife" with her in the last scene. I hope she did...

Killing Ground could have easily been a little more gritty, but I still think that what we were presented with was quite a lot. The villains are exactly as nasty as you want them to be, and the fate of the individual characters is not pretty, but that was to be expected. Like I said, there's nothing particularly original about the film, but in this case it doesn't matter because you get what you want and it's good.
