Black Sheep
“There are over 40 million sheep in New Zealand, and they're pissed off!”
Certified Crap. CrapScore 63, rated by 1 admin.
Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
Genetic experiments turn New Zealand sheep into enthusiastic carnivores. The premise is immediately wonderful, and the film keeps finding messier ways to demonstrate it. The repeated livestock attacks can outlast the joke, making this a better choice for creature-comedy fans than for anyone expecting sharp satire.
