Outback Revenge
Outback Revenge (original limited released as Sleeper) is a 2012 Australian action horror film that was written and directed by Dru Brown and produced by Judd Tilyard. It features Bruce Hopkins and Scott "Raven" Levy. Plot. Brutal killer Adam Resnik (Scott Levy) escapes during a prison transfer and begins a bloody killing spree on his way home to Moonlight Bay, and the target of his desire – the young and vulnerable Kelly (Kym Jackson). Detectives Raynor (Bruce Hopkins) and Molloy (Ty Hungerford) track Resnik as he closes in on Kelly and her friends, racing to catch him before the  sun goes down. Release. The film had an original limited release under the title "Sleeper", and a later wider release under the title "Outback Revenge" with an accompanying horror short titled "Mr. Bear". Reception. HorrorNews.net gave "Sleeper" a favorable review, writing that "Even though "Sleeper" sounds like films most of us have seen hundreds of times it still finds a way to knock its viewer on their head. The film simply flows and there isn’t really any slow moments, Resnick gets free and proceeds to tear through the town." "28 Days Later Analysis" wrote "the story is a violent  one, but one of better film elements within Sleeper are the many diverse settings", and also noted the "ending is a little vague, but the many action scenes make up for some of the deficiencies." They scored the film 7 out of 10, concluding "the story is not fleshed enough, a multi-dimensional villain, predictable". Of its release in Germany, "Amboss-Mag" reviewed "Outback Revenge" and noted Scott Levy's showing himself as a superb casting choice for the role of Resnick. While most of the other cast were not entirely convincing, that point was less important because all they  had to do was appear and "bite the dust", and though it barely prevented itself from looking low-budget, it was an entertaining action film.
