It's one of the most original films you'll likely see all year, which, depending on your threshold for certifiably crazy storylines, could be a rewarding experience or one that frustrates you.
View MoreThe film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
View MoreOne of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Not much can be said beyond my headline. It's a very fun, sexy, funny, sometimes scary horror. It is well acted and uses barely any special effects.It's a refreshing horror, that has funny moments, and manly moments and is not cliched. The movie is what the title said, a Boar which is killing. It's well shot and well acted. Even the music is pretty good. Their is even a famous song that is played on the radio from a famous rapper 20=5 years ago, "baby, if you know what I'm saying."Highly recommended for horror lovers! 9.5 out of 10!
View MoreBOAR is a great Australian movie : its a CREATURE FEATURE folks - not GHANDI or SHINDLERS LIST... The Australian film industry is now near non-existent.. And Chris SUN is leading the charge in Australia to produce SOMETHING!!! And that is a great thing. Its easy to sit back and critique ... try and make a damn movie.. especially in Australia where film funding is a brown-paper-bag of non existent cash for projects.. The legendary films of Australia from the 80s (Mad Max, etc) are not being made here now.... sad... Horror films here ( Im Australian , living in Australia ;) are in SHORT supply ... America turns out some good stuff - but alot of crap too..BOAR is a GREAT movie given the cinematic climate it is being made in.. Ignore the negative reivews : people are entitled to opinions - but Australian horror is a RARE thing and Chris is delivering a good product.. ( I dont know Chris , and am not affiliated in any way - Im just an Aussie Horror fan) Now to the film...Contrary to other opinions - I think the acting is good (ive seen a LOT of Horror movies and seen outrageously worse acting... Pick any Troma film you like.. and i LOVE Troma..The film has a great number of legendary Aussie actors (John Jarrett, Roger Ward, Steve Bisley, Chris Heyward ) legends all of them and they all do what i would expect of them and delighted in watching them .. I mean Roger Ward : Mad Max and Turkey Shoot!!! Excellent! The ladies are also great too : Simone and Melissa are much stronger in BOAR than any of their lightweight TV stuff - In BOAR could see that they actually can act. We are talking a fictional big pig and i thought Simone was great in her "tragedy" scenes.. Nathan Jones : man "get-in-the-ring" love him. and its just him no makeup - loved his contribution.. The film looks great, the sound is crisp and effective ( i only watched it at home) the locations are moody and effective - and the BOAR is great.. I mean c'mon - its a PHYSICAL creation not a complete lame ass CGI effort.. and i challenge anyone to produce a physical creature.. Given the budget and such constraints i think its as good as it could be..In closing if you want to watch a CREATURE FEATURE - BOAR is as good as any you will see - support it !!!!!!
View MoreWatched Boar because of the reviews and don't know where the high ratings came from. I wanted every character to be killed because they were all so freakin' annoying! Dialogue was vulgar and uninteresting, special effects mediocre at best. If you can watch it for free you'll get you money's worth, any more than that and you overpaid.
View MoreThis 3.4 million dollar production should be ashamed at such a complete waste of money and supposed great Australian talent. Criminally poor acting, a derivative script with a plot so stupid it is painful to endure. Couple that with creature effects and digital effects that make Lake Placid 2 look like a masterpiece. Avoid at all costs is my recommendation.
