Black Sheep Moan


Following in the great tradition of films from New Zealand, the New Zealand Film Commission is going to take the zombie film in a direction that had only previously been suggested by British scientists with the release of Black Sheep.

From the movie's synopsis: "On a vast New Zealand sheep station, a reckless genetic engineering experiment goes horribly wrong, turning sheep into bloodthirsty killers." This may not seem especially scary in parts of the world such as Los Angeles where sheep per capita is relatively low, but in places like New Zealand, where sheep outnumber people 12 to 1, or in sheep-baiting vehicles parked at the drive-in, it's a real cause for fear. The synopsis didn't mention if a zombified Chris Farley ends up as delicious sheep fodder in the flick.

Check out the trailer for all the fuzzy frights.
