I'm sure you've seen it already since it's one of the best films of the 10's so far, but The Rover.

If you're looking for something similar in theme/tone there was a french film I can't recall the name of, a singer whose truck breaks down in the middle of nowhere and the locals make him a slave and fight over him.

>Ya new to the Yabba?
Is it about Yabba the sniper

Such a haunting film, with so many great lines.

"Perfectability, progress, are vanities spawned by fear"

"All the little devils are proud of hell"

Wake In Fright is a masterpiece by any criteria I can think of. The kangaroo scene is the pinnacle of horror on film.

>During an early Australian screening, one man stood up, pointed at the screen and protested "That's not us!", to which Jack Thompson yelled back "Sit down, mate. It is us."

That and the constant drinking. I felt my throat dry up by the end of the film
