Straight to video? Straight to the bin. I think we are over these over stereotypical Australian characterisations and this trash should be the last film of this type inflicted on the rest of civilisation. What on earth persuaded some of the lead names to even consider this tripe?

An American miscreant flees to Australia after a number of troubles and setbacks with shady characters in New York City. In Australia, he meets a number of extremely unusual characters, which are likely the above-ground counterparts of New York City's Mole People. He winds up married to an extremely attractive but highly unusual girl, and gets to meet and live with her extended family. It's an entertaining and quirky film. If you enjoyed the American "After Hours", the German "Strange Brew", the British "Brazil", etc. you are bound to enjoy Australia's "Welcome to the Whoop-Whoop". Here in the USA we also have a place comparable to the Whoop-Whoop. It's called Albuquerque, New Mexico.

This is a movie that celebrates the bizarre. It has a decent main story to hold a few sub plots and a whole lot of strange together. This movie is not for the prudish or faint of heart as crude jokes about or references to incest, masturbation, sex organs, and coitus abound.But if you like me revel in the crude, Welcome this film takes you to fantastical place, and introduces you to a community of what can best be described as Aussie white trash, surviving in an outback village unlike anything you've ever imagined.If I had to compare this movie to other existing works Id say its kinda like Lost meets the Road Warrior if Trey Parker and Matt Stone had written it.

I saw this movie late one recent evening on MGMHD. While I was watching it in bed my wife woke up and asked me what was this crap I was watching. And much of the time I was watching it, I thought it might be crap too. It's disconcerting to watch and completely unconventional as a movie and quite off-putting in many ways other reviewers address. But after it was over, the atmospherics, mood, and offbeat nature of this film's virtually subconscious themes literally haunted me. I want to see it again. It literally haunts my dreams. It might be a great work of art because it moved me even though it also disgusted me.I'm no scholar or art historian so I make no claims other than this film jolted me in a way few others have. The closest thing we have in America are some of the films of Harmony Korine and I can't make up my mind if he's a great artist or disgusting fraud either. Maybe both. But I felt many of the same feelings after watching Gummo and Kidz.
