What critics compared Rogue to
McLean is at his best when he avoids bells and whistles and focuses on creating a straightforward atmosphere of dread, as in his first two films, Wolf Creek and Rogue (or his episode of the subsequent Wolf Creek TV miniseries ).
Rogue saw a group of tourists battling against a giant crocodile, The Darkness was a traditional story of a desperate family against the supernatural and most recently, The Belko Experiment , saw office workers simply trying to survive one bloody day at work.
We’ve had murderous bushmen (Wolf Creek and its sequel), killer crocs (Rogue), ancient evils (The Darkness) and now this tale of four backpackers getting soundly spanked by Mother Nature.
