    The film uses the dichotomy of sound/silence, light/darkness in such a controlled and masterful way creating really interesting paranoia and suspense. It also uniquely utilises the audiences imagination is a way I love, in that the audience never sees the film that the mixer is working on - we are only exposed to it through sound and dialogue, primarily screams or sounds of violence. I would strongly recommend this strange and brilliant film!

    I consider this to be one of the most underrated and brilliant Australian films. It is exceptionally well cast, and manages to perfectly balance the line between tension and comedy. Taking the piss out of Australian culture without being too tongue in cheek. A young Rose Byrne and Heath Ledger have beautiful chemistry, opposite a perfectly cast antagonist - Bryan Brown. The film also features a great nineties soundtrack and for me will always be synonymous with These Days by Powderfinger.

    A more perfect conclusion to a 22 film saga could not have been written.
