"Maurice", the web series, has screened in Los Angeles, Rome, Glasgow, Seoul, Miami, and Bilbao, Spain where it won "Top Ahmet" as Best New Series in all categories. Most recently, his work with Fu' Entertainment as executive producer and co-writer of a French "dram-edy "entitled "Maurice" was selected as an Official Selection of The Cannes Short Film Festival 2017 along with being selected as one of the winners of the prestigious Cannes Film Festival Screenplay Competition for Best Screenplay for a TV Comedy Pilot in 2017. He was also featured in the original company of The Grammy and Tony Award winning Cy Coleman Broadway musical, THE LIFE, directed by Michael Blakemore and produced by Academy Award winning producer, Marty Richards (Chicago). Elsewhere, Rain Man, Diner, Wag The Dog, and Good Morning Vietnam). In addition to his study in various styles of martial arts, Michael Delmare can be seen as JIA KENMIN on the Emmy award winning HBO TV drama series "OZ" written and produced by Tom Fontana & Barry Levinson (Borgia, The Killing Fields, Copper, Homicide, St. With all that said, here are the 20 highest-rated Australian horror films, according to the Tomatometer.Michael Delmare: Writer / Producer / Actor Take shots at us in the comments if you must, but won’t regret watching them. (Yes, Curtis’s Final Girl phase even took her to entirely different hemispheres.) Purists may quibble with the choice to include Phillip Noyce’s Dead Calm, a twisty and taut three-hander with Sam Neill, Nicole Kidman, and Billy Zane – it’s not horror in the traditional sense, perhaps, but it will have you squirming. As will Justin Kurzel’s The Snowtown Murders (released as just Snowtown in Australia), a crime drama with grisly horror elements you won’t soon forget. We then culled the selection down to the 20 highest-rated movies, which included a couple of Rotten-but-fun ( Bait) or seminal flicks ( Patrick), and even a Jamie Lee Curtis sort-of-slasher. They also had to have more than 10 reviews – which is why the great maybe-horror Bad Boy Bubby, with only nine Tomatometer-approved reviews, didn’t make the cut ditto the excellent anthology Dark Place. To be included in the list, movies had to be made and set in Australia, by a predominantly Australian crew. Consider Wolf Creek and its sequel, or the more recent Killing Ground, which tell ripped-from-the-headlines slasher tales of terrorized backpackers and campers, but do so with an almost merciless insistence on graphic, real-feeling violence. And while we’re talking brutal, check out The Loved Ones, a darkly comic tale of obsession that found new ways to drill into the torture porn trend of the 2000s. Recent international breakouts like Jennifer Kent’s Babadook and Natalie Erika James’ atmospheric haunted house chiller Relic traffic in the slow-building dread of today’s “elevated horror,” but Australian genre films have been largely marked by a certain hard brutality over the years. Movies like Wolf Creek and Road Games play with our anxiety about who, and what, we might encounter dare we venture into the endless Outback, while Hounds of Love and The Babadook explore what might lie behind your neighbor’s door.
Yet while this collection of essential Aussie horror flicks does contain several of those Down Under biters – two crocodile movies, one shark movie, and one about a giant wild boar (didn’t see that coming, did ya?!) – it also features works that tap into something just as threatening: the vast land itself, from the mystery of its desert center to the dark possibilities of its cities’ sprawling suburbs. You might expect a list of Australian horror films to be teeming with the beasties people associate with the continent: poisonous snakes, deadly spiders, mammoth crocs.
