Black Sheep - a New Zealand comedy-horror set amongst the rolling hills with zombie-killer sheep on the loose! Wonderful. So low budget you feel like you and your mates could have made it but for all the dodgy make-up and acting, a great film is made better because of this lack of investment.
Really basic story - two brothers, one a mad farmer and the other a city boy returning home to collect half his inheritance. Unfortunately, he's really scared of sheep. Bad luck for him...
Two amazingly clichéd and zany hippies roam the woods attempting to put a stop to the older brothers genetically meddling, sheep altering lab staff. It all goes a bit wrong... Imagine Weta Workshop gone mad with 50p worth of fake blood and chopped liver!!! Great stuff.
As predicted, the younger brother gets roped in to put a stop to all the madness and one by one the humans get bumped off by the crazed and blood hungry baa baa lambs!
It gets quite gory and bloody. YEAH! If you love Peter Jackson's 'Brain Dead', you'll really appreciate this. The sound quality was often pretty poor but the scenery and novelty of seeing a New Zealand film at work more than made up for it! Entertaining stuff indeed.
