Wolf Creek is a 2005 Australian horror thriller film co-written and directed by Greg McLean. The film focuses on three backpackers who find themselves held captive in the Australian outback by Mick Taylor (John Jarratt), a sadistic serial killer.

It is used by Mick to terrorize his victims and later briefly used by Liz Hunter (Cassandra Magrath). Coincidentally, the 541 was discontinued in 1999, when the film takes place.
