- TriviaThis movie's screenwriter, Rob George, on the film's audio commentary, said of this film: "The original source of the idea for me was driving back from Sydney to Adelaide one night, we left about midnight, and around about West Wyalong we got taunted by some guy who kept driving right up behind us ... just sitting a foot or two behind the back of our ute and then he'd pass us and go up and come back on the other side of the road and play chicken with us. It was really distressing".
- Alternate versionsThe UK 1987 Embassy Home Entertainment video tape release had 57 seconds of BBFC cuts to remove shots of Cassandra Delaney having her clothes cut and shots of her breasts when she is tied to the car. Even with the cuts the movie was still classified by the BBFC with an 18+ certificate.

Featured review
I feel bad for Ted
Protagonists in revenge flicks are usually people who have been egregiously wronged. This is so that when they go medieval on everyone's butt, we're happy about it. My problem with this movie is that the protagonist--Jessica--is equally guilty. Therefore, when she gets what's coming to her, I don't feel bad about it, and when the antagonists get what's coming to them, I don't feel bad about it either. We're just watching a bunch of stupid people escalating things without knowing when to quit.
By the mid-point of the movie, there's only one person I feel bad for: Ted. Ted is Jessica's off-screen boyfriend who is attending a conference somewhere. He gets to come back to the wreckage left behind by his girlfriend's actions.
For me, having Jessica go on offense early really undermines my investment in her fate and the movie as a whole, loosening the tension I might otherwise feel watching a movie like this.
Cassandra Delaney is stunning so I didn't regret watching her for 90 minutes. Can't say I believed the plot but the acting and direction were solid.
1-3 Don't waste your time 4-6 It's okay/good 7-9 Great 10 Outstanding.
