The local release is 1080i. I emailed the Director who made it and he confirmed it was filmed in 1080p (http://www.rule.com/products/1454).

So I would advise for anyone interested in this film (its great) to import it. The UK and US release are 1080p.

While the Australian release does look good, its still sad that such a great Aussie film gets shafted in its own country.

Far out, what is the deal lately? It seems a lot of the films I've wanted to pick up of late have had issues of some sort such as Solomon Kane and now this.

Retailers wonder why people import. Ensure releases are 1080p (unless the original source was filmed at 25 or 30fps), have lossless audio and are not priced out of this world and people will buy them. With all due respect to studios and distributors if you give consumers a reason not to go with your product then you can hardly fault them for going elsewhere.

Looks like US or UK are the way to go then. Both are 1080p. Thanks for the heads up!
