Black Sheep
Film (Trailer, Excerpts, and Extras) – 2006
A mutant lamb escapes after genetic experiments, and herds of sheep are turned into bloodthirsty predators. Three hapless humans are stranded on the farm, after learning that a bite from an infected sheep can have alarming effects. With his first movie, Jonathan King (Under the Mountain) provides splatter thrills, and gleefully attacks some Kiwi sacred cows. Black Sheep was invited to 20+ festivals, where it scored awards and acclaim. The interviews include King, Wētā Workshop creature maestro Richard Taylor, and the film's heroes: actors Nathan Meister, Danielle Mason and Tammy Davis. Read more about Black Sheep here.
There are 40 million sheep in New Zealand... and they're pissed off!– The movie's tagline
