NEWS: Wolf Creek TV Series Premiering This Week


This week is a HUGE one for director Greg McLean (Wolf Creek), as his latest horror flick The Darkness hits theaters on Friday – and just one day prior, the brand new TV series set in the world of his Wolf Creek franchise will premiere over on Aussie streaming service Stan. The six-episode series brings Mick Taylor to the small screen, and McLean promises it will deliver the goods.
In an interview with Bloody Disgusting, McLean teased the horrors that await.
We follow a female character who is out for revenge after her family is murdered by [Mick Taylor], so it spins the whole concept on its head in that the slasher villain is now being hunted,” McLean told the site. “And as he’s hunted, we learn more and more about what created this monster, and potentially how to destroy him.”
I’m so proud of the series; the writing, acting and imagery is amazing,” he continued. “I think horror fans will love it as it’s complex, rich, and full of atmosphere, while also being shit-scary. It also has some the genuine ‘HOLY FUCKING SHIT!’ moments that each ‘Wolf Creek’ film has.”
The network we premiere on – STAN – is Australia’s NETFLIX, so we could do anything…and we certainly did! They are great partners and wanted to create something that’d blow audiences away and not shy away from violence, horror or gore. I was amazed and delighted – as I’m sure horror fans will be as well – by seeing something that has no real restrictions. That said it’s not gratuitous as it’s essentially a character-based drama series – the character just happens to have a soft spot for mass murder and serial killing.”
The series centers on Lucy Fry (Eve Thorogood), an American tourist on holiday with her family who becomes the sole survivor when her family is massacred by Mick Taylor (John Jarratt) in the Australian outback. In the wake of the murders, she becomes hellbent on revenge, turning the tables on Taylor and stopping at nothing to put an end to his brutal murder spree.
