Sightseers, the darkly comic paean to caravanning, written by and starring Alice Lowe and Steve Oram, is released today in Australia and New Zealand!

If you live in the Southern hemisphere and you’re still not sure that a murderous caravan movie is your cup of tea, take a look at our bursting-at-the-seams-with-good-stuff Sightseers tab to see what it’s all about.

Don’t just take our work for it either; the film has been busy featuring in UK critics’ Top Movies in 2012 Lists, including Time Out, Andrew Collins‘ blog and Shortlist. And, as you can see, the positive reviews are already coming through in the local antipodean press too! And while you’re at it, there’s also part 1 of a 2-part interview with director Ben Wheatley in the New Zealand Herald.

We managed to grab a few minutes on the red carpet at the recent UK premier with Ben Wheatley, producer Claire Jones and the brilliantly-bearded Steve Oram. See what they had to say when we asked them who they would like to go caravanning with:
