Dying Breed is a genre film of a different kind (horror), 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 police. 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).
