3/10
Did you know boars can teleport?

They can in Australia apparently! I love a good creature feature and I tried really hard to keep an open mind with this one but I just couldn't get past the stupidity here. Okay, the dialogue is a bit sketch (I am not from Australia, so maybe it's the norm to talk about sex acts you've performed with your girlfriend when you're on a road trip with her family). And I suppose character development is not really necessary when you're bouncing around between a bunch of characters with no clear lead. I am even willing to overlook (mild spoiler) the fact that there is no explanation ever given as to where this giant boar came from. I guess, it's just... Australia? But the fact that this boar seems to randomly appear like some sort of outback porcine Freddy Krueger? No. That's where I draw the line. One minute it's rustling in the bushes and the next... poof, right there! I mean, c'mon! An animal that size is not going to be all stealth. Not to mention the fact that, in many areas where it attacks, the land is wide open! How is it sneaking up on people when there is literally no place for it to hide? I am guessing it also has the ability to change size at random because, even in areas where there is cover, the boar would be too big for anyone to not see it... and yet... This isn't a bad movie by any means but it's not as fun as it could be.
