Lake Mungo Review

Review of Lake Mungo (2008) by screenqueeen: 👍 4/5

Presented in a documentary format, communicating this modestly budgeted Australian mystery in a style similar to other true crime television formats really fosters a grounding effect on the events that follow. I don't want to give anything away but there are some striking similarities between this and Twin Peaks, even going all the way to The Return. The incident at Lake Mungo especially got to me and is one of the only films I've seen recently that has consistently given me chills.
