Red Hill

Australian writer and director Patrick Hughes made his feature debut with this contemporary western. A young city cop transfers to a small town for peace and quiet but finds the opposite when a dangerous convict is on the loose. Hughes recycles themes and styles from countless classic films for this slick genre film which delivers the thrills if not originality. Ryan Kwanten stars along with Tommy Lewis and Steve Bisley in the supporting roles. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
