'Wolf Creek' is next stop for Dimension
Although the Sundance Film Festival doesn't begin until Jan. 20, Dimension Films has already snapped up rights to multiple territories on the Australian feature "Wolf Creek," which will make its world premiere in the festival's new World Cinema Competition section.

Dimension has acquired the rights for North America, Latin America (excluding Brazil), Spain, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and Benelux, paying slightly less than $4 million for the deal.

Budgeted at $1 million and inspired by real events, the thriller-horror from first-time writer-director Greg McLean follows a group of three travelers threatened by a seemingly harmless local in the Australian outback EDITOR'S NOTE: ALL THAT BUGGERING SHEEP AND HAVING NO ONE TO TALK TO BUT DINGOS, AND YOU FINALLY JUST GO ROUND THE BEND, HUH?
