 Student Review for Black Sheep in Cinemas Now!
Black Sheep from Kiwi director Jonathan King, is packed full of schlock horror jokes that you’d expect from a film about killer sheep. Apparently the same sheep-wranglers that worked on Babe were engaged to bring vastly different results on this project!
Plotwise, a farmer Henry Oldfield wants to sell the sheep off his farm but his brother Angus is up to no good, getting involved in some nasty genetic experiments in a bid to create a ‘super sheep’. Of course, such meddling is not a good idea and its not long before a toxic lamb foetus escapes and infects a whole flock turning them into rabid woolly monsters out to commit some seriously ba-ad farmyard acts.
Black Sheep is one of those horror comedies that exploits every bad taste joke in the farmyard book. Before you can say mint sauce, or woolly jumpers, these supposedly docile monsters are out to get their own back and show that the violence of the lambs is something to be reckoned with.
The opener of the recent Frightfest season, Black Sheep is very enjoyable. Its not meant to be taken too seriously and works in a kitsch ba-ad taste kind of way which will have you hesitating, the next time you’re asked to enter a field in the countryside and suddenly spot a few sheep in it.
