Aliens kill everyone in a small town in New
Zealand and package them as fast
food; four men are the only ones who can stop
them. Mr. Otter and I
watched this and Cannibal: the Musical
as a double feature...a seriously
weird film fest!
Boy, that title ain't kidding! This has been
dragged out of the vault
because it is Peter Jackson's first
flick...it's
low-budget and obviously a beginner's work,
but it is amazing to think that
in just 7 films and 15 years, he went from
that to something as stunning
as Fellowship of the Ring.
This is a silly bloodbath of a movie; brains
and body parts everywhere,
running jokes about people eating/stepping
in/cutting apart gross things,
pretty darn good aliens, lots of explosions,
amusing for an evening when
you don't demand much entertainment. Peter
Jackson plays Derrick, for those
who are interested in seeing the man himself.
