I think that is a little harsh it can be your onion I guess....
There has been some fine Australian movies especially of in the past 10 years but even before that...
Romper Stomper, Gallipolli, Breaker Morant, Little Fish, The Proposition, The Erskineville Kings, Mad Max, Lantana (my personal favourite),
The Bank, Two Hands....fuck the list is huge I think for Australian cinema, these are just what I can be bothered typing in 30 seconds
in the "horror" genre - Razorback, Picnic At Hanging Rock stand out to me..
yes there have been appalling bits of dross but there have been just as many gems....
