Preview: Black Sheep (2007)


Poster: B

Review:

Taking its cue from the posters for Scary Movie and other dark comedies, this poster is quite interesting with a tagline that perfectly captures the humorous novelty of the theme. Even the car-trapped Kiwis help convey that style.

Trailer: B

Review:

I don't know whether to be repulsed or laugh my head off. This New Zealand twist on the horror comedy of Shaun of the Dead seems a bit too creepy and too ludicrous to be little more than Attack of the Killer Sheep (not Tomatoes).

Oscar Prospects:

As off-beat and amusing as the film might be, nothing will convince Oscar voters to take this film seriously.

Release Date:

June 22, 2007

Synopsis Review:

I have not seen this film.
