Australian Gregory Harrison plays a grieving Canadian husband who travels to Australia to discover what happened to his American eco-activist wife. She disappeared in the Outback. Why? Well, it's really no spoiler to say that there's a giant boar (the Razorback of the title) rampaging around, killing people and smashing things. How big? Minivan big.
The movie's first scene sets the bar pretty high for crazy events and fast-paced action. The rest of the movie isn't that good, but it's pretty good. Harrison even has a surreal vision sequence while he's wandering the Outback. While it's set in the present, Razorback portrays rural Australia as one big Mad Max wonderland. It's marvelous, giant-monster fun. Recommended.
