"Rogue Movie" "Rogue Trailer" - First Look "Rogue" - In Theaters April 25, 2008
Greg McLean's first box office bomb, "Wolf Creek," took audiences (the few thousand idiots who paid to see it on the big screen), on a frightening, fact based road trip through the darkest parts of Australian Outback and the depraved human mind. Journeying home again, this time to the crocodile infested waters of Australia's remote wetlands, the director's wildlife boat tour is more down-under "Jaws" than "Crocodile Dundee." Joining a beautiful local tour guide (Radha Mitchell) and an American writer on assignment (the to-die-for Michael Vartan), the rest of this thriller's food chain is composed of tourists and adventure seekers alike. Waiting in vain to be rescued on an ever-disappearing parcel of dry land, you will never guess their next move...as terror lies just beneath the surface. (If you saw "Primeval," you have already seen "Rogue." The directors of each crocodile movie fought to get their films in theaters first. "Primeval" won, but bombed at the box office. So why would anyone in their right mind think that "Rogue" can or will outdo "Primeval," which itself was a bomb at the box office? Well, actually, no one, not even the movie studio releasing "Rogue," The Weinsten Co., has any hope for "Rogue" on the big screen. It gets a release in only 10 cities on April 25, 2008. And expect it on DVD in May 2008, where it will undoubtedly be in the bargain bin by June 2008.
