Short description

An extinct species, the Tasmanian tiger. A long-forgotten legend, “The Pieman” aka Alexander Pearce, who was hanged for cannibalism in 1824. Both had a desperate need to survive; both could have living descendants within the Tasmanian bush. Four hikers venture deep into isolated territory to find one of these legends, but which one will they come upon first?

What's left behind the scenes

  • The plot is based on an Australian legend about Alexander Pierce, a 19th-century criminal nicknamed the Pie Man. Pierce earned this nickname because after escaping from prison, he ate his companions.
