Happy New Year! Dan and Conrad start 2021 with something that feels like unbelievable fantasy: a movie in which someone travels to another country! It's Rogue – a 2007 monster crocodile thriller from director Greg McLean (Wolf Creek). It stars Radha Mitchell (Pitch Black) as the plucky captain of a crocodile river cruise in Oz's Northern Territory. She gives a boatful of tourists more than they bargained for when they get stranded on an islet in a tidal river patrolled by a 7-meter croc who gets extremely touchy about people invading his territory. As night falls and the water rises, the mismatched bunch – including American travel writer Michael Vartan (One Hour Photo), future Avatar star Sam Worthington and a young Mia Wasikowska (Crimson Peak) – have to hatch a plan to escape before the man-eater picks them off one by one. But is this aquatic terror an undiscovered gem in the wilderness or a waterlogged stinker? Find out!
