Last night we watched 'Uninhabited'. It's the story of a young couple that camp out on a small tropical island near the Great Barrier Reef. They're dropped off there by a small boat that would come back to pick them up in 10 days. They have all the supplies they need and a tent. The island is supposed to be uninhabited so they would be alone and have a romantic getaway. After the first day or so they come to realize they're not alone, someone or some thing is watching them and messing with their things. Are the other inhabitants humans playing tricks on them or is it something much more sinister and supernatural? The movie contains some nice tropical scenic photography, unfortunately the story drags out and was ultimately a waste of time. I'll rate it 4 stars for the pretty scenery.

This movie was flawed by some terrible decisions in the writing. It is not as horrible a film as a lot of people here have made it out to be but I thought it had a number of very disturbing moments, especially in the first 3/4 or so. They just didn't know how to end it. Like a lot of Aussie movies it's a very unconventional film. This one is a peculiar mix of good execution and terrible execution. Personally I liked it much better than any mass-market horror movie I've seen in the last 20 years (like the Scream, Saw and Final Destination franchises which are perfectly executed tripe.)Don't expect it to be a conventional film. The movie was basically ruined by the hamhanded ending but until the end it looked like it was going to be OK. It's almost as if two different writing crews worked on it, one professional and the other made of junior high kids.

After watching the more highly-produced, space horror flick "Europa Report", I wasn't expecting much from this flick. But these Aussies know how to make B-movies at least better than Americans or Brits. "Wish You Were Here" was also another slow-burn Aussie flick.This film is about a young couple who camp out on an uninhabited island for 10 days. Or so they think it's uninhabited. Unlike "Europa Report", this film throws us a creepy bone every now and then to keep us interested, and the run-in with the Greek fisherman was well-placed and suspenseful actually. The acting by the male was NOT bad; I don't know what these others are talking about. The couple did make some bad choices, but that's the writer's fault, and the choices weren't beyond the pale, since they DID believe some kids were pranking them (after all, if there was something more sinister going on, they would have done it at night).The resolution/wrap-up is a little confusing, and some moments don't work as well as others, but all-in-all, a fairly entertaining and short movie. There are NO cringeworthy moments that I could see.
