The world needs more creature-features, and BOAR looks like it will deliver the goods. Your local pot belly pig may make for an adorable house pet, but wild boars are known to be nasty creatures with sharp tusks the creature uses to impale and maim its victims. They can grow dangerously large and kill a human with savage ease. Making a movie with such a creature as the antagonist while in the Australian outback—where everything can kill you—seems fitting.

The premise of BOAR appears to center around a family that strays too far into the territory of a large wild boar that has no problem defending it. The trailer looks both bloody and a tad ridiculous, and everything needed for a solid creature feature.

BOAR is directed by Chris Sun (CHARLIE’S FARM, DADDY’S LITTLE GIRL). The movie stars John Jarratt (WOLF CREEK, DJANGO UNCHAINED), Bill Moseley (CHARLIE’S FARM, HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES, THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE 2), Simone Buchanan (NEIGHBOURS, MCCLEOD’S DAUGHTERS), Nathan Jones (CHARLIE’S FARM, MAD MAX: FURY ROAD), Hugh Sheridan (PACKED TO THE RAFTERS), Roger Ward (MAD MAX), Melissa Tkautz (REAL HOUSEWIVES OF SYDNEY), Ricci Guarnaccio (GEORDIE SHORE) and Ernie Dingo (CROCODILE DUNDEE 2).

Release information is coming soon, so stay tuned.

Plot Synopsis
