Dying Breed is a gruesome little Australian horror film from director Jody Dwyer that follows 4 tourists in search of the supposedly extinct Tasmanian Tiger and happen to stumble upon the history of notorious cannibal Alexander Pearce.
It starts off a bit slow but when it finally picks up you realize it was intentional as the horror of the mysteries begin to unravel. It never really does anything we haven't seen a million times before but the dreary atmosphere of the backwoods of Tasmania makes for a beautiful and frightening effective backdrop. My biggest complaint is how many times I found myself yelling at the characters "STOP FUCKING SPLITTING UP!" In the end, I found it to be a so-so crowd pleaser that could have tried just a bit more.
