Black Sheep (2006) - The greatest movie amongst the "sheepest" and cheesiest horror parodies - 9/10 (29/06/11)

This is now already the fourth part of my little review series: Movies that are way better than you expect.

"Black sheep" is a very funny and extremely entertaining horror parody that comes from New Zealand. There are many crazy ideas, hilarious ideas and great jokes as well as a few entertaining characters in this movie. Just switch your brain off and get entertained on a high level. I must admit that I haven't laughed watching a movie a long time ago and this movie must be one of the most hilarious ones I have ever seen.

Take the most innocent animal on earth which is a sheep and make a monster out of it that transforms egoist, capitalist and ignorant managers, scientists or farmers into were-sheep that begin to act and talk in a weird manner. Add to this simple plot a diversified team around an esoteric ecology-terrorist, a tough old housekeeper, a handsome farmer and the main actor and brother of the villain that suffers a sheep phobia and is in therapy to fight his demons. Mix great dialogues with slight gore passages, beautiful landscapes and some action and adventure scenes that are inspired by some great classics. You will be entertained every single moment and live a movie that sticks to the roots of great horror flicks and its parodies but that still offers many original ideas in a unique context coming from an exotic country.

As I have never seen a better horror parody, I give a quite high rating for it even if there is a lot of easy toilet humour, some excessive gore passages and a many stereotypical characters in it. There is so much cheese added to the original ingredients that the final result turns out to be an amazing pizza that should please to almost anybody that is ready to watch some great imaginative but childish entertainment from time to time.
