What Wolf Creek offers is a competently made horror excursion with an unfortunate reliance upon cliches balanced off by some legitimate shocks.
James Berardinelli, ReelViews
Rotten
It's a depressing exercise in just mutilation and torture.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

It's not your typical holiday attraction, but it should lift the spirits of horror devotees, if no one else.
Lisa Rose, Newark Star-Ledger

Wolf Creek is wicked and witless -- cruel for the sake of cruelty.
Bruce Westbrook, Houston Chronicle
