So- we saw Black Sheep last night at the Neptune Theater. The line to get in went on forever and every seat was filled. Not too shabby. I've seen a lot of midnight movies over the years and this was the first time I was scared enough that the adrenaline kept me awake until 2am.
Baa baa, black sheep, have you any…fangs?!!! The sylvan pastures of New Zealand, home to forty million sheep, are the setting for gory mayhem when a mutant strain of the normally placid fleecy ones runs amok in this endearingly funny horror romp.
My dear husband, loved it. Our friends, loved it. Me- I had my hands over my eyes- a lot. I believe I was curled up in the seat within the first 15 minutes. It was quite successful as a black comedy. The comedy was pretty funny, but oh- the gore! In a way, the bad special effects from the "days of yore" are more comforting, at least to this animated Disney classic watching gal. Thank goodness my husband knows when to cover my eyes and not let me peek!
The was the second year in a row I saw a midnight movie that involved a large amount of farm animals being exploded with methane flatulence...the boys want t make this a SIFF movie tradition...
I'm ready for my chick flick Mr. d'Mille...
