Our take

What happens when nature finally fights back? Find out in this tense, late-70s eco-horror from Ozploitation director Colin Eggleston. Set against the eeriness of the wild Australian landscape, Long Weekend doubles as a marital drama about an estranged couple beset by a threatening natural world.
