Synopsis – Buff Creek: Run or Die
When two Darwin brothers, cautious Luke and reckless Jake, head out for a casual crabbing trip at Buff Creek, it quickly turns into a fight for survival. What starts as another wild Top End adventure spirals into a nightmare when their boat drifts away, the tide turns fast, and they realise they’re not alone in the mangroves.
Stalked by a massive, relentless crocodile, the brothers must navigate rising waters, darkness, and their own mistakes to make it back alive. As the river closes in and every decision becomes life or death, Luke and Jake are pushed to their limits—testing not just their survival instincts, but the strength of their bond.
Because out at Buff Creek… you don’t get a second chance.
