Ah, Australia. The land of terrifyingly large killer spiders, backpacker murderers, drop bears and Russell Crowe. With so many things ready to kill you at a moment’s notice it’s no wonder that Australia makes a perfect setting for horror movies.

And strewth almighty, have our Aussie friends given us some bloody brilliant horrors in the past forty or so years. Shame then that, barring a few exceptions, many more than worthy Australian horror movies haven’t gotten quite as much attention internationally as other geographically specific genres like J-Horror or New French Extremity.

But thankfully, we’re here to change that and shine a well deserving light and the best and bloodiest horrors the land down under has to offer. So, brace yourself for murderous maniacs as mad as a meat axe and scenes so gory they’ll make you chunder.
