Screentime Australia for Stan
Wolf Creek is a psychological thriller based on the international hit feature films of the same name.
Murdering psychopath Mick Taylor (John Jarratt) returns to wreak havoc in Wolf Creek – except this time things are different. This time the victim fights back. At first the pattern is familiar; Mick chooses a family on vacation in Northern Australia to terrorise and destroy, but that is merely the inciting incident to a much larger story. Seriously injured, 19 year-old Eve survives the massacre of her parents and little brother, recovers and sets out to bring the killer to justice. Wolf Creek reveals her complex and extraordinary journey, travelling every step of the way as she evolves from child to adult, from prey to predator. But can she triumph over Mick Taylor, evil incarnate?
In season two, the law can’t touch him. The police don’t even know his pursuits. He’s invisible – a demon stalking the outback.
Mick Taylor (John Jarratt) has got away with murder more times than he can count... almost. His season one battle with Eve Thorogood (Lucy Fry) brought him closer to death than ever before. But with concerns of getting older, Mick thinks about his legacy… he decides it’s time to do something big… something to secure his notorious legacy. One day at a roadhouse an affable tour guide props next to him for a soft drink… and an opportunity presents itself. Mick’s twisted plan unfolds rapidly: how can a coach-load of tourists simply vanish without trace?
With no mobile reception, little water and less food, his victims battle to survive against the human predator’s torments in the harsh conditions of the Australian outback. With deadly wildlife, growing terror and extreme weather – every moment is a battle.
Will the group work together or turn against each other? Remain united or scatter in disarray? Can they figure out why Mick is doing this, and what his next move will be? Who, if any, will survive?
