Finally, a movie that does for sheep what Jaws did for sharks, show them to be the true killers they are. No wait, it's a movie that does for sheep what The Birds did for, well, birds. No wait, I think this is more like a movie that does for sheep what Killer Clowns from Outer Space did for clowns, show them for the true evil that exists within while leaving you laughing in the aisles. No wait, I am just confused and I am not sure what this movie did for sheep. Black Sheep, and I am not talking about the Chris Farley movie, is a horror movie from beautiful and cinematic New Zealand, where 40 million sheep roam the land, waiting for you to let your guard down. Then they will eat you. Wait, I am getting ahead of myself.
While it may be instantly scary for someone living among this many sheep to think that they might be genetically altered to become killers, to those of us living elsewhere, the idea seems laughable... ...at first.Then you watch Black Sheep, and soon, like that summer after seeing Jaws when you wouldn't swim, you will spend a year without visiting a farm. Especially those of you who have ever thought about spending an evening there, if you know what I mean. Black Sheep is scary, funny, ludicrous, cheesy, odd, good, bad, and everything in between. At times it is a horror film, and at other times you and your drunken frat buddies will laugh till you cry. It's really hard to classify this film because it's SHEEP, people. Innocent little lambs. When you try and make them big and scary, they become big and funny. Like say, clowns from outer space. When you watch this film, remember... Why do Scotsmen wear kilts? Sheep can hear zippers.
