It's been a while since Yahtzee reviewed a nice, gory horror movie. Might I suggest Braindead by Peter Jackson?

If you haven't seen Braindead, then you haven't lived. It's widely believed to be the goriest film ever made. There's one scene where the main character straps a lawnmower to his chest and grinds his way through a crowd of zombies. Sheer awesomeness!

Sorry, I don't do requests. Review it yourself.
As I walked through the valley of the shadow of death, I realised that it could do with a lick of paint.

Very well!


Ok, before I begin, I'd like to note that I tried to keep this as spoiler-free as possible. If you see something that you would consider a spoiler, I apologize.



Braindead
(Dead Alive in North America) is probably one of the greatest splatter films ever created. There is a very good reason for this: there is enough spilled blood in this movie to fill a small lake. Many people would be surprised that Peter Jackson, of all people, created this movie. Yes, before LOTR he was known for his gory, horror-comedy films. (Like Bad Taste, but we'll delve into that another time.)

The movie starts when a creature called the Sumatran Rat-Monkey is captured and sold to a zoo. The Rat-Monkey is the final result of plague rats fucking tree monkeys. The bite from this creature causes it's victim to turn into a zombie and stumble around, trying to snack on people's heads. When this creature ends up in a zoo, someone gets bitten, and naturally, starts a huge zombie outbreak.

The first half of the movie is somewhat violent, but the second half is where the gore really begins. You will see organs being ripped out, blood caked on the walls, severed body parts flying through the air, sliding around in spilled blood.

The film didn't have an unlimited budget, and most of the money probably went toward buying fake blood and organs, so the production quality isn't the best, but it really doesn't matter.

The movie is also filled with hilarious black comedy and memorable lines ("That's my mother you're pissing on!") but, as this is a film not to be taken seriously, the humorous lines only add to the enjoyment.


OVERALL

Dialogue: 8
Gore: 10
Production Quality: 7

Overall Awesomeness: 9

Go find a Braindead DVD in your local video store as soon as possible. You will not regret it. Unless you hate hilarious splatter films.

Watch it, by some strange twist of fate, you might eventually encounter someone from this forum personally, and you'll get your fight. Remember the ending of Jay and Silent Bob? biggrin.gif That was the only part of that film I liked.

Uh-huh, yeah, right... dry.gif

EDIT: You said you were sixteen, didn't you? Are you sure there are no problems with your growth hormones (as well? wink.gif)? You might want to ask a doctor just in case.
