Review:
Well this is what Peter Jackson used to make, and actually I prefer this sort of comedic low-brow gorefest. It was shot over several years using Peter's friends and I believe this was his first major picture. From what I gather these funny looking aliens who eat goo murdered off a town for human food for their impending restaurant...or something. The point is, it's certainly easy to watch although it's quite stupid, it's bloody, and be darned if there isn't an exploding sheep and a house space ship. Also the characters in this are actually a load of fun and the movie is filled with surprises. This one really must be seen to be believed. It's not as great as "Braindead", but it's certainly in the same ballpark.
