Crazy Australian Flick

SquirrelQueen · March 06, 2008, 12:19:01 PM

All right, a person from my movie group gave me this plot. She thought it was called "Father Christmas". It was set or made in Australia. It's about this busload of kids who gets highjacked by three escaped convicts and taken off into the woods or something. Then the kids have to escape. They set these traps and what not to catch the three convicts and get to safety.

Ringing any bells?

Hi, RC.

Vernon Wells was part of the Power Rangers series: he played a character called Ransik, if memory serves.

There is a funny video of him in character as Bennett on www.commandofans.com: at one point, he even falls over and I don't know why.
