We've seen killer birds, bees, dogs, children, anything and everything. But have we seen killer sheep? I mean ruthless tear-your-thoat-from-your-neck killer sheep? Well I haven't.
Before this arrived in my mailbox, I assumed the worst. Just think, a film about sheep killing worthless humans? Eh. Quite obvious it'd be really good or really bad. Thankfully for my sanity, it's not all that bad. Some moments that acting almost killed me, but as soon as those sheep came into the picture, life ruled again. The effects are done amazingly well [and by the same crew that did the Lord of the Rings trilogy] and slammed with plenty of blood, guts, and ... sheep. There's only a handful of victims, but those that die, sure go out in style. Most of the movie was spent laughing my bum off at the non-stop one liners, the other bit was spent with that squished up face I make when things go to the gore (although to be fair, things never really get frightening). I kind of want to own one of those cute little killer genetically engineered aborted babies. Gross, huh?
The increased amount of horror comedies are more than welcome to keep coming.
Recommended.

I never would of thought i'd hear anything good about this movie. I thought it was a joke when I saw an ad for it. I guess it's the little things that suprise us these days, that and sheep.
That has to be the funniest goddam DVD cover I've EVER seen. Jesus. As far as horror comedies, have you checked out Fido? It's quite brilliant.
The cover is what inspired me to pick it up. I don't think Black Sheep is for everyone, it's a little quirky and all, but I like it. And again, that could possibly just be the funny, killer sheep. Still, check it out if given the chance.
