Reviews
"Two Heads Creek is without a doubt the best local Horror/Comedy I’ve seen in years. It’s the perfect blend of something like our very own “100 Bloody Acres” and a dark English comedy like “Inbred”. The production value is sublime, the set dressings have great attention to detail, and the location really works. The cinematography is proficient, the edit comes together well, and Ryan’s score is extremely engaging. All of the actors are very funny individuals, who on top of that deliver entertaining performances. Waller’s writing is crafty and consistently funny, O’Brien’s direction clear from the outset, and the end result is a balanced slice of good gory times.."

"It’s the opposite of subtle, but that fits with the movie’s generally over-the-top tone, which includes cartoonish characters and buckets of blood and guts, in a style that owes a lot to the early splatter-comedy work of Peter Jackson and Sam Raimi as much as to Australian horror landmarks like Wolf Creek”
