"RIFE WITH BLOODY GORE AND FUNNY GAGS" (Sam Adams, Los Angeles Times), Black Sheep is a gruesomely twisted horror/comedy about mutant flesh-eating sheep run amok in rural New Zealand. When sheep-aphobic Henry returns to sell his share of the family farm, he finds his brother has been genetically altering the animals. The resulting monsters go on a murderous rampage, and it's up to Henry to stop them. With frighteningly grotesque effects courtesy of Peter Jackson's WETA workshop, Black Sheep is a frenzy of severed limbs and manic mutton definitely "not for the weak of stomach" (Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News).
My Comments:
Although this movie certainly had its funny moments, the balance between humor and horror was a little off. A fun enough watch, though, and short enough not to drag.
