Razorback (film)


Razorback is a 1984 Australian horror film written by Everett De Roche, based on Peter Brennans novel, and directed by Russell Mulcahy. The film revolves around the attacks of a gigantic wild boar terrorizing the Australian outback, killing and devouring people.

Two years later, American wildlife reporter Beth Winters Judy Morris journeys to the outback to document the hunting of Australian wildlife to be processed into pet food at a derelict factory. Beth gets video footage of two thugs, Benny Baker Chris Haywood and his brother Dicko David Argue illegally making pet food out of animals and is chased down by them by car. They catch up to her and attempt to rape her only to be chased off by the same boar that killed Jakes grandson. Beth attempts to take shelter in her car, but the hog rips off the door, lacerating her groin with its tusk before dragging her out to be eaten. With no witnesses, her disappearance is subsequently ruled an accident resulting from falling down an abandoned mine shaft after leaving her wrecked car.Some time later, Beths husband Carl Gregory Harrison arrives in search of her and encounters Jake, whom Beth interviewed during her initial report. Jake refers him to the local cannery where he meets Benny and Dicko whom he convinces to take him along on their next kangaroo hunt, only to be abandoned by them when he spoils a potential kill. Carl is then attacked by a herd of wild hogs, spurned on by the giant boar, who chase him through the night and force him take shelter atop an abandoned windmill. The next morning, the hogs succeed in knocking over the windmill, but Carl is saved by landing in a pond at the windmills base that is too deep for the hogs to cross over. ........
