The first film, "The Dry," was filmed in Victoria, Australia, primarily centered around the quiet agricultural town of Beulah in the southern Mallee region. Other filming locations included surrounding areas like the Henty Highway, the banks of the Yarrimabiack Creek, Brim, and Hopetoun. The sequel, "Force of Nature: The Dry 2," took place in much different settings characterized by lush green forests and rain-soaked landscapes. It was filmed in three primary locations in Victoria as well: the Yarra Valley, the Dandenong Ranges, and Cape Otway. These locations are known for their natural beauty including rainforests, waterfalls, and rugged terrain, which were key to the storyline of the second film. In summary:
- "The Dry" (first film): Filmed mainly in Beulah, Victoria, and surrounding Wimmera Mallee regions.
- "Force of Nature: The Dry 2" (sequel): Filmed in the Yarra Valley, Dandenong Ranges, and Cape Otway in Victoria, Australia, featuring lush rainforests and waterfalls.
