Dies und das:

WILHELM SCREAM: While the people at Angus's speech are being attacked by the sheep, two men try to get into a car, and the one on the driver's side gets pulled down by a sheep and screams.

Dialogzitate:

Henry: What are you doing in here?
Angus Oldfield: You wouldn't understand.

Damn good movie. Scary in two ways.

I thought this movie was lots of fun. It is not really for intellectual heavyweights, but if you want to be entertained for an hour and a half, then this is definitely one to watch.

It certainly stereotypes New Zealanders in a way I bet will annoy them no end, but it probably points to the maturity of their nation that they can get away with sheep-sex jokes without it causing too much angst.

There were some great one-liners, and the special effects were quite sophisticated too. The psycho sheep looked quite real at times.

I am just wondering how they got the real sheep to act so convincingly, by running in the right direction at the right time, and going up to people etc. I owned sheep as a child, and they are dumb animals.
