Croc movie will get 'em  September 21, 2005  You'd think horror
flicks about madmen chasing backpackers to their deaths and
killer crocs would turn tourists off the Northern Territory.
Not so, tourism operators say.  In fact they say Aussie director
Greg McLean's films Wolf Creek and Rogue could in fact lure more
people to the Top End.  McLean has received rave reviews around
the world for Wolf Creek, his debut film, set in the West
Australian and Northern Territory outback.  The feature film,
shown at this year's Cannes Film Festival, is based loosely on
the stories of missing British tourist Peter Falconio and
backpacker murderer Ivan Milat.  Twenty-something British
backpackers Liz Hunter (Cassandra Magrath) and Kristy Earl
(Kestie Morassi) are joined by Australian Ben Mitchell (Nathan
Phillips) in Broome, Western Australia.  Their adventure in the
outback turns nasty when they are abducted by Mick Taylor (John
Jarratt).  The film opened in Britain last week and will be
released in Australia in November,
