When sheep meet the birds…

In a movie which could have been torn from the mind of Scott Sigler, you’ll never look at lamb chops the same. Black Sheep:

Critics are raving:

I have HAD it, with these MOTHER****ING SHEEP, on these MOTHER****ING PLAINS!!!

The dialog is riveting:

  • Shoot it again!

  • Violence of the lambs
  • Bloody animals…
  • The sheep are revolting.


Looks like we’re (well, the kiwis in the crowd) in for a wild ride come March. And yes, I think it’s for real. Weta Workshops has a page detailing their work on the project.

(Thanks to Randy for the link!)

    This will be the comedy of the year. I’m so there! ;)
    Grab a group and head to the cinema.

    The feel good hit of the year without doubt. It makes me think of Ewe in a whole new light.

    You forgot:

    Unless they are pulling the wool over our eyes … it looks like “fun” has come back to the cinema!

    It’s a move that screams “WHO’S YOUR DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADDY!”

    Really? Think it’ll get his goat?

    I’m hoping for a cameo by Sherrie Lewis singing “This is the song that never ends…”

    Lamb Chop eats Sherrie in the last scene. That song just had to end……

    Fuck it. I quit.

    … and so, as Sherrie is apparently gets it in the end … Scott “takes it on the lamb”.

    All I can think about is “More Mint Jelly!” from SNL.

    Buck up, Sigler. You are the only one who can top this. I’m not even sure Sam Raimi could pull it off.

    I have faith in you.

    Damn, this movie could well be what Snakes on a Plane should have been.
