SINGAYA! A film I may have seen no less than two dozen times, possibly due to the fact that Peter Jackson's 1992 zombie horror comedy is widely considered THE goriest movie of all time!
Plot: When Wellington Zoo's newest addition-the Sumatran Rat Monkey, goes literally and figuratively apeshit (ha ha) and bites Lionel's overbearing mother, zombie shenanigans ensue. Lionel stashes the towns un-dead in his cellar in an effort to prevent a further spread of the infection to the 1950's New Zealand population and more importantly, not to screw up his blossoming romance with the lovely Paquita. With the help of a Kung-fu Priest and a lawn mower, our hero runs the gauntlet of everything from killer intestines and a zombie baby to an uncle with urinary problems and a questionable taste in porno's.
If this film has taught me anything, it's that if a person tells fellow party goers that some of his best friends are paedophiles, immediate disembowelment will follow. Huzzah!
Line of the film: "I kick arse...FOR THE LORD!"
Budget: $3,000,000
Gross: $1,870,578
Fun Fact: When the film was available for VHS rental, it came with a complementary vomit bag!
