Reviews:

The Boddies in the Barrels Murders.
The press junket and first wave of critical notices built Snowtown up as a throat ripper that will cause you nightmares. That didn’t do it any favours as per expectation levels for the horror enthusiast. However, this is a superb piece of film making, a real gritty and grainy deconstruction of the human condition gone sour. As with all films of this type that are based on real life incidents, it pays to read up on the facts if you be so inclined.

Debut director Justin Kurzel doesn’t shirk from the horrors of the case, but skillfully he doesn’t bang everyone over the head with shock tactics to grab the attention. It’s a relentlessly bleak picture, there’s a continuous build of impending dread, of human devastation wrung out by a master manipulator (Daniel Henshall as John Bunting superb), the depressing story told through the eyes of the simple and confused Jamie Vlassakis (Lucas Pittaway).

Not to be watched if one is looking to be cheered up! But that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be sought out as essential cinema. It’s a strong and potent film, worthy of inspection by adults who understand that not all film is about entertainment. 8.5/10

Ineffective slow burn
I’m all for an effective slow burn, but this was unfortunately just a drag, with little to no pay-off. The case itself is incredibly disturbing, and just as interesting, but watch one of the many documentaries about it if you want to learn what actually happened in Snowtown.
