Summary: If you think YOU got bad taste, think again....
Review: This is the first movie directed by Peter Jackson that made it big. Peter Jackson, currently working on "The One Ring" (the big screen adaptation of the classic "Lord of the Rings"), is a rising star from New Zealand, and has directed instant cult classics as BrainDead (aka Dead Alive), Dangerous Creatures and The Frighteners. Bad Taste is Peter Jackson at his worst, or best, depending on your point of view. I found the DVD immensely enjoyable. The story centers around the semi-brave mercenaries from Astrological Intergalactical Defense System (yep, thats AIDS for short) who have traveled to a small New Zealand town taken over by Aliens with an appatite. In 90 minutes we see them battling the hordes of mindless, zombie-like mutants, and no holds are barred! Right from the start things get wild. The guys from AIDS battle their way to the HQ of the aliens where they infiltrate behind enemy lines (and even a little bit deeper) to resque a hostage. After that the movie takes a rampant Rambo-esque turn when an all out battle burns loose. Sure, the story may not be that good, but its good fun! Dont expect flashy computer generated special effects. Expect lots and lots of gore! Expect bad jokes, bad music, bad dialogue, but all with an incredible amount of fun! To sum it all up : Expect Bad Taste! This is definitely one of those movies you will either love or hate! If you like movies like Evil Dead and Braindead you will love this! If you're a serious movie buff steer clear! Trivia : Peter Jackson himself plays the hilarious Derek who has a tendency to lose little pieces of his brains during battle. The complete soundtrack was done by the main cast (dont you love small independant productions?).

Summary: the funniest and goriest movie sence the toxic avenger
Review: Bad Taste has so many funny sceans like when Derek shoots the alien and he falls on him and he shoves his gun through him and shoots the other aliens.This movie has so much fake gore but its still funny.

Summary: Perhaps the Definitive Cult Classic
Review: Absolutely crazy horror comedy and Peter Jackson's (who is now busy making 'Lord of the Rings')debut movie. Gore and blood abound as 'The Boys' are called in to get rid of an alien menace killing townspeople to use them as the latest fast-food taste sensation on another planet. At one point, one of our heroes, Derek, falls off a cliff and splits his head wide open - the rest of the time he has to wear either a hat or belt on his head to keep his brains in! Exploding sheep, aliens eating brains and vomit, 'The Boys' killing everything in site and a starship in the size of old house - this film has it all and twice over. All done with more than a hint of humour, this extremely black-comedy, blood drenched from beginning to end will make you laugh hysterically and feel a bit grossed out at the on-screen display. Directed with passion, made over four years' worth of weekends with a bunch of friends and virtually no-budget, this cult classic is essential viewing for all horror fans, especially those who enjoy cheesy humour. If you like 'Evil Dead 2' and the Monty Python films, you'll love this - watch it now!

Review: The best horror movie I am sure that you folks out there will ever see, it comes with over 90 mins of extreme grossness, brutality, and humor that anyone who watches a good horror movie can apreciate. Do not let the cover of teh movie get you sceptical because i believer very few words in it let alone lots of swearing and such, so do yourself a favor and rent it today and you will be probebly be doing the same thing that i am and that is buying this masterpiece and writng a reveiw on it because you like it so much. Thank you, and until next time keep your keep your head out of the clouds and your feet on the ground.

Summary: A true slapstick masterpiece
Review: The most fun you can have with brains, intestines and buckets of blood. For those who thought Dead Alive was a crazy and hilarious film, you need to watch this! It might not be quite as gory as DA, but when you have this much blood in a film, it's not going to matter. I've not laughed at a horror film as much as I've laughed at this one, and that includes quite a few Tromaville and other Peter Jackson flicks. My fave scene was the exploding sheep towards the end, though the PJ character's "problem" (don't want to ruin it for first time viewers) is very close.

Summary: A classic gore fest with humor
Review: Note quite as gory as Dead Alive (Braindead), but pretty close. Definitely more humor. If you like Evil Dead 2, you'll love this. Watch it twice if you have trouble with accents. You won't be sorry.

Summary: blood,blood........................... this movie is aw'some
Review: Wow! This movie realy roxxs! it's Peter Jacksons, tha' directors, first movie......... and i have to say, he made a hell' of a job (it did take him 4 years to colmplete the movie, because finansing, or 'should we say money problems). This is gore to tha' maximum....... blood, blood, blood. And it maybe don't have tha' best of stories (cool aliens that are selling human flesh as hamburgers to the fast food devition..... dont know how that is speeled, i'm from Sweden, so anyway, they do that so they have food supplys in hyper space, and then, we humans send in some UFO-hunters, to exterminate them, but ofcourse, the hunters use waaaaaay to much violents that is needed to kill those aliensbastard), but it seruantely, is one of the best splatter movies ever made like Braindead (Dead Alive) and Evil Dead! And it's great fun, the opposite of Evil Dead. So the fact remains: yOU HAVE TO SEE THIS MOVIE ATLEAST ONE TIME IN YOUR LIFE! Thank ya' all folks...................... PS. Also see Braindead, (Dead Alive, by the sam e director, Peter Jackson who also star in both tha' movies) if you liked Bad Taste! Braindead have some more gore in it, and is atleast as good as Bad taste....... what am i saying, YOU HAVE TO SEE BOTH, BAD TASTE AND BRAINDEAD, if you realy are a splater/horror fan. PSS. In Braindead, watch out for the cool baby scene!

Summary: Perfect mixture of gore, action and comedy
Review: A fantastic debute for Peter Jackson. It sold to over 25 countries in just days. Contains a perfect mixture of gore, action and comedy. Even if it's made out of a almost non existing budget it kicks most Hollywood movies big time. Peter Jackson has realy taken homevideo to a new level with this movie.

Summary: Peter Jackson doing what he does best!
Review: First off, let me once again say that you MUST not get this version of "Bad Taste". Like the unrated print of "Dead Alive" that Amazon sells, you may believe that it is completely uncut because it is unrated. Wrong! It is cut by almost five minutes! Pick up a dupe of the long out-of-print Japanese laser instead! Anyways, the flick itself is just great. It's got that "Jackson" charm that viewers of his films have come to expect: plenty of goofy gore, laughs, more laughs, and more gore! This is truly a worthy precursur to "Dead Alive/Braindead"!
