A young Australian police officer asks for a transfer to a small town ( Red Hill ) so that his pregnant wife, in a quiet setting, can have a better chance at giving birth successfully after losing their first one. But the officer's first day on the job becomes an all out nightmare after an escaped convict seeks bloody revenge on the local police force. During the turmoil, the young officer learns why the convict is on a revenge rampage and the reason isn't a pretty one, pitting the young man against the rest of the local police force once the truth is known.
Even though this is set in Australia, it has the look and feel of a modern day North American western. Take away the cars and trucks, add a few more horses and this could easily be a pure out and out western. I don't know any of the Aussie actors, but all did a stellar job, especially the guy portraying Old Bill, the police inspector. I really enjoyed this film, in fact I enjoyed it so much I intend to buy it. :T
