Tasmanian-born writer-director Damien Power’s holiday-from-hell thriller Killing Ground combines great aesthetic elegance – including beautiful cinematography and naturalistic editing – with an acrid, lingering foulness, derived from knife-edge performances and a terrifying premise executed with airtight verisimilitude.
