"Wolf Creek 2" is gory, disturbing, inventive, twisted and rather well made.

A fast-moving, lean killing machine that will delight genre fans.

As well made as it is, it would be great to see what McLean could do if he were free from genre conventions and could put his many talents to use in a movie not built around beheadings and dismemberments.

Mick has been reimagined as a chortling, xenophobic butcher who enjoys a singalong of "Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport" and dismembers his victims with the help of Patsy Cline's "I Fall to Pieces."
Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
Rotten
Ultimately the sequel's raisons d'etre seem to be emulating superior movies, from "Deliverance" to "Joy Ride" to "Saw."
