Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Michael Ledo Three Americans in Australia for fun and sun come across a couple of local boys who tell them a "real live" ghost story. The story goes, a motorcyclist was killed one night on the road by a car of speeding teens. If a carload of teens go speeding down the highway, a light appears behind the car that looks like a motorcycle. The kids do it and sure enough they see the light except for Maya (Jessica Tovey) whose hobbies include nose bleeds, bad dreams , and sleep walking.After a night at the local's house they go try it again, this time stationing Oscar (Andrew Ryan) on the side of the road with phone camera to catch a close up of said ghost...things don't go the way the kids would have wanted it.The script shows originality. I thought the twist was a letdown as compared to the biker story. It was at this point the low budget aspect entered the film. The build up to the killings was more scary and suspenseful than the killing themselves.Guide: F-bomb. Brief rape and nudity (Piera Forde)

trashgang Urban legends, where's the time that there was a flick simply named that way. But back to this flick. Friends on holiday do hear by local youth about an accident happened way back on Lemon Tree Passage were one died and when you drive the Passage very fast you will see it's ghost.Promising, yes, and it starts off rather okay with something seen on youtube of someone capturing the light of the ghost on the passage and do they scream, yes, so hell is out there. Let me tell you, it was hell to watch this.Nothing works here, the story is simple, the effects are laughable, for example the hanging, okay, I can dig it, but the rope isn't tight and still he do hang. Really? And there are other things that made me go ooow, and huh all over this flick. And the ending so predictable, no I rather stay away from this passage.Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 1/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5

jtindahouse Austrlian horror films have a good track record (at least in my book). The best ones like 'Wolf Creek' however don't rely on the supernatural. The Austrlian people and their country are very dangerous and can make for great characters, especially in horror. 'Lemon Tree Passage' relies far too heavily on the supernatural, more than any film should. It starts off as a story about an urban legend based on a long strip of road and by the end is something else entirely (what I'm not exactly sure). The writing is so poor throughout that it's almost impossible to get a grip on exactly what is happening and why.There aren't a lot of frights at any stage of the movie. The opening scene is bizarre and poorly directed and things don't get any better from there. From a very early point it becomes hard to care about the fate of any of the characters. The only one with any personality isn't in it for long and the rest really have nothing going for them. There's no time spent creating any tension is any scene and the suspension of disbelief is far too great to ever buy into (or care) about the story that's trying to be told here. A real misfire.

lois-lane33 Don't bother with it-its really a stupid movie with a plot that doesn't know where its going and poor acting and its all a waste of time. I didn't even bother to see the entire film. I watched an hour of it and then I was absolutely finished with it. Its a shame in the sense that it had a promising beginning but as it unfolded it became evident that the people making it couldn't even decide on a plot line as one plot line gives way to another and then the whole thing merges in a nonsensical dogs breakfast. Usually Australian films are a bit better than most but not this one. Junk cinema. If I compare it to some other Australian horror films-Wolf Creek-Rogue or The Tunnel from 2011, this one doesn't even come close to matching the former titles. There is nothing worse than watching a film disintegrate before your eyes and this one does exactly that. Pitiful film making.
