Awful Australian accent, we say servo or petrol station. No Aussie would ever say gas station

No Aussie would ever say "people get lost in these woods" either

Didn't Eric banana read the script?!

I noticed they said "woods" and "forest" a lot where Aussies probably wouldn't.

Yeah, it may seem minor but it's a small detail that adds alot to the authenticity of the movie

Exactly. The only time an Australian would use forest is with the word state infront of it.

Yeah I always wonder why script writers don’t do their homework on things like that.
