Trivia
Australia has no Panthers. There is an urban legend stating that a panther escaped from a travelling circus, and fled into the woods. There have been several sightings and even a footprint found, but no concrete evidence of a panther has ever been found.

Goofs
When Billy shoots his rifle in the air by the burning hay barn, the gunshots make a sound as if the bullets are ricocheting off of something. But when you shoot in the air, there is nothing to ricochet off of.

Nice movie, but not original at all

All the stock characters are there, including rookie with a past, hard-boiled boss, scary somewhat indestructible bad guy, and a town full of folks with incredibly bad shooting skills (miss 6 shots at point blank???) and poor judgement (bad guy is silhouetted in the door and you have a rifle, so just hide noisily???). And of course, about half-way through the movie you'll pretty much figure out the rest of story. Just very predictable. The characters, as I said, are no surprises. Not to say it was not a fun movie to watch, even if just to see that your original guess at the ending is correct (trust the force, Luke, it is what you think). Nice filming location, but sometimes the accents are a tad thick too (watched most of it with subtitles).
