'Black Sheep' (the Movie)

Which reminds me... has anyone watched the recent New Zealand movie 'Black Sheep'? Well you should! It's a total crack up. Were-sheep indeed. Only in New Zealand! :lol: One of the funniest tasteless movies I've ever seen (and unlike some 'horror' style movies, it's not funny by accident, it's actually intended to be that way).

EDIT: Now I just need to watch that other tasteless NZ movie from the 80's again: 'Bad Taste'.

This post is off topic and should be removed I reckon - where is a good Mod when you need one???? :lol:

This has been showing on Foxtel recently and probably Austar. I proposed watching it the other week. My wife just glared at me and rolled her eyes. Now that it's been highly recommended I'll have another try!

From the program guide:
"There is no silence when these genetically modified lambs turn into ravenous predators" :lol:
Next showing December 11, 12, 22, 23, 30 (Foxtel)

There's just no pleasing some people. Especially when they're right. ;-)

I discovered that it's showing again today so set up the DVDR to record it. Hopefully find time to watch it over the weekend. :)
