Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDevising everything from conceptual art to buckets of gore, sculpted body parts and sophisticated prosthetic make-ups, a highly experienced Weta Workshop crew came together to build writer-director Jonathan King's distinctive vision of Kiwi bucolic bliss turned monstrously on its head.
- GoofsWhen Sgt. Sabich attacks Steve, he is in the middle of urinating and, throughout the scene, urinates further from fear. When Mike rescues him, he backs up from the tree and the front of his pants are dry. However, the camera pans to his pants later and there is a big wet spot on the front.

Featured review
Brilliant.
This movie tickled my funny bone. Its got that great Kiwi humor, this the huge amounts of swearing, Maori jokes, and Kiwiana icons. Look out for the part with the Watties sauce, and the crazy Asian guy running across the screen.
The actors are pretty good, and Weta workshop must have been in their element with the splatter style film. You get a fright, then laugh because you realise its a psycho sheep. Sheep? C'mon. Some people may never be able to return to the farm again, but me? I have a whole new respect for the woolly guys. Put this move at the top of your must see list!
