ストーリー
A suburban couple, Peter and Marcia, decide to spend a weekend camping at a remote beach in Australia's outback. Initially, they enjoy each other's company, but tensions rise due to their strained marriage. As they continue to disrespect nature by littering and disturbing wildlife, the natural world begins to fight back. Strange occurrences, such as dead animals appearing on their campsite and violent storms, lead them to believe that something sinister is at work. The couple soon realizes that they must confront their own actions and each other before it's too late.
概要
Long Weekend (1978) is an Australian eco-horror film directed by Colin Eggleston, blending elements of marital drama with horror tropes set against the backdrop of the wild Australian outback. The film follows Peter and Marcia, a married couple on the brink of divorce who embark on a weekend camping trip to a remote beach. However, their plans for relaxation are disrupted when nature begins to unleash its wrath upon them due to their disrespectful behavior. With themes of environmentalism and the consequences of human actions, Long Weekend serves as a cautionary tale about our relationship with the natural world. The film is often associated with the Ozploitation movement, which encompassed low-budget Australian horror and exploitation films during the 1970s.
