Dying Breed Posted Banned - HorrorMovies.ca

The Austrailian poster for Dying Breed has been BANNED from Bus Shelters in Australia and frankly... rightfully so. The poster below is not something that should be shown in bus shelters ( where children can see it ). The Daily Telegraph reports the ban has been put in place by the ad agency that runs advertising for the bus shelters. I hope that I am not the only person who see's this as a fair ruling.

My good friend Vic put it best when he made a Star Trek comparison on the whole topic of banned posters and people who dont get it.

i'm always reminded of the conversation between spock and mccoy where spock says they can't discuss the afferlife because mccoy hasn't died. The same can be said for people who dont have kids and think marketing materials like this are acceptable.

Dying Breed is inspired by the bizarre Australian legend of Alexander Pearce - a convict of the 19th century, who was nicknamed 'the Pieman' after dining on his fellow escapees in the Tasmanian wilderness before being captured by the authorities. The film is set in the modern day, when a group of four set out on a quest to prove that the Thylacine (Tasmanian Tiger) still lives in the Tasmanian forests. They become prey when they wander into the domain of the living descendents of the Pieman - who retain their ancestor's taste for human flesh.

In the tradition of Wolf Creek and Blair Witch Project, this is a film for the under 30's, featuring Nathan Phillips (Snakes on a Plane, Wolf Creek) and Leigh Whannell (Co-creator/writer & actor Saw Writer and producer Saw 2 & 3). Thanks to Alien25 for the scoop!
