Black Sheep


Here's a bit of good clean, but bloody, fun from NZ. Best described as slapstick horror, it tells the cautionary tale of what could happen if genetically modified, mutant sheep were let loose on the world. Shot in the green and bucolic pastures of NZ sheep country. It includes some excellent lines, such as when a sheep farmer is discussing the illustrious sheep breeds.....Merino, Dromney, Drysdale the names that "young men in the land recite as they take themselves off at night." Its unsettlingly gory at times and probably not one for the kiddies or the squeamish, but generally good fun. The Kiwis have a unique sense of humour which is definitely worth checking out as we have seen with the excellent Flight of the Conchords.
