    The idea that Jackson made one film (this one) and then got offered Lord of the Rings is pretty funny! In fact, he had already made Bad Taste and Meet The Feebles, and would go on to make Heavenly Creatures and The Frighteners before LOTR came his way.

    The best thing about the movie is the seamless cuts where you can clearly see the real actor and it switches to practical effects as their body is torn apart. Peter Jackson is a very skilled filmmaker, everything about the directing, the acting, the camera shots is deliberate and made with a vision.

    If you know what to look for you can see it, but it's hard to spot ^^ like a flailing arm passing in front of the camera to hide a wipe to the puppet getting its face torn off (which is actually amazingly close in resemblance to the actor). The jump cut of the girl getting punched through the head is pretty much flawless.

    "Braindead" is a true genre / splatter classic. It's years ago now that Peter Jackson talked about his early movies being scanned in 4K from the original camera negatives, and nothing seems to have happened. His early works (including "Bad Taste" and "Meet The Feebles") definitely deserve a proper remaster and re-release on (4K) Blu-ray. These movies may not be perfect, but you can tell they were made by someone who loves what he does.

    There's a wonderfully zany, inventive and homemade quality to Peter Jackson's early stuff, that he lost to a certain degree once Hollywood beckoned. This movie is OTT fun, and I hope Jackson can return to this type of moviemaking some day. No bloated epics, no CGI or trying to win Oscars -- just low budget (and therefore unrestricted) fun. I think Heavenly Creatures (an amazing film) is the bridge between these movies and his later stuff.

    I really love the movie Bad Taste, too. His budget was so small that he used his mom's oven to make prosthetics for practical effects. And one time, he had his mom drop him off to the location he was going to shoot. But none of the other cast showed up that day, I forget the whole story. Anyway, without cell phones, he had to just sit around all day doing nothing, waiting for his mom to come back at the per-arranged time when shooting was supposed to wrap up, lol. He also acts in it. For what it is, it's actually a gem. Has some legitimately risky shots, too. Precarious situations.

    It was the film following this, Heavenly Creatures, that got Jackson noticed by Hollywood. That led to The Frighteners, following which he began chasing down doing a remake of King Kong. From what I gather Universal wasn't entirely happy with the box office for Frighteners and so they took a pass on Kong but cannibalized the script to use for The Mummy with Brendan Fraser.

    The park scene with the pram was an added extra after the film had been finished. And it's inspired. Worth noting, Richard Taylor did the special effects and Jamie Selkirk did the editing. The following year, Jackson, Selkirk and Taylor formed Weta Digital and history was made. All three went on to be Oscar winners for Lord of the Rings: Return of the King.

    Recently, Peter Jackson was making a documentary about World War I called "They Shall Not Grow Old" It is jaw dropping amazing. He not only colorizes the old footage of the war, he slows the speed of the footage down to its proper pace, so the action moves at a normal speed. He adds sound to the degree that he got expert lip readers to figure out what the soldiers are saying, finds out what company they were with, so that he can get an actor from that region to do the voice, so that the accent will sound proper. At one point a major is reading a prepared speech to the troops, and they found the damn speech so we could actually hear what the soldiers were being told at that moment. And the most amazing part (however I don't know how well the effect comes off on tv as I've only seen this in the theaters) he damn near perfectly converts 100 year old footage into 3D! In the theaters I couldn't believe how amazing it looked. The first scene where it switches over to 3D is in a destroyed forest where all of the trees are blown up stumps, and you could see the depth of the forest, almost to the point where it looked like you could've just stepped through the screen. It is a masterful achievement in documentaries, and well worth the watch

    Oh, you beautiful bros, you actually went and saw this movie. That makes me so very happy! And no, this does not get you the money to make LOTR. I think this was Peter Jacksons first movie with some proper external investment money and he worked up the food chain to two Hollywood movies. The Frighteners with Michael J. Fox and Heavenly Creatures with Kate Winslet. The latter was a solid drama based on real events with some fantasy elements. That gave Miramax (if I remember right) the confidence to give him the money for not 2, as Jackson proposed, but 3 movies to film LOTR. I always say this movie is about as funny as the amount of blood on screen. An absolute gem.

    Jackson's first movie was 'Bad Taste'. It was made on a very limited budget, over a period of years and is the very definition of a cult movie. Peter Jackson played two roles and created all the visual effects himself. It is well worth a view. Also worth a mention, the looney tunes mortician's assistant in Braindead\Dead Alive is also Jackson.

    The second I got the notification I knew you guys would love it. When I first saw this, it was a heavily censored version (I live in Germany). Even then I loved the comedy, the pacing and the cartoonish acting. Plus, even the cut version was pretty gory. I had not the slightest clue, though, what this movie REALLY had to offer. So, naturally, my first un-cut watching of "Braindead" totally blew me away. It is easily a 9 out of 10 for me.

    Ooooh I remember watching this movie on VHS very covertly at a friends house while his parents rehearsed for the local nativity play downstairs. We had the TV turned so low we were straining to hear anything and we still thought his parents would storm into his room at any moment and throw me out! We talked about this disgusting film for weeks at school afterward. Good times.

    When my friend and I watched this for the first time years ago, he laughed so hard that he started having chest pains. For a bit we thought he was literally going to have to go to the ER. And when we found out they'd tagged Jackson to do one of the greatest stories of all time into a huge budget production, we were freaked out. THAT guy's going to direct the LOTRs? WTF.

    It won a lot of awards when it hit the film festival circuit in 1992. Especially for best effects. And I think it won best picture at Avoriaz that year. And still, for some reason, it ultimately bombed at the box office. For such an awesome film, I still don't understand why, to this day, there are only a few releases out there. There's a big cult following, that would love to see it being treated with the love it deserves.

    I'm so glad you watched this movie! It's probably my favourite horror movie, I just love how it ridicules the genre while still being very entertaining. Everything is just so ridiculous, but it's all executed so well, that you can't help but get dragged in. It also uses cuts in a smart way, and there's just a ton of creativity everywhere. The only downside might be the jarringly bad acting, but I believe most, if not all of it is on purpose - but for the average viewer it might come off as just crappy. This movie is just full of Peter Jackson's youthful energy and ambition, and it shows. You seemed to enjoy it a lot, which I'm very happy about! Oh, and nice job on fixing the sound of your voices in the video ;)

    This is his thrid sand the fact he was so hands one with everything including the effects and played the opening guy who got killed just makes it so neat. His previous two films to this one Meet the Feebles (If the muppets was a dark comedy in the vein of this), Bad Taste is his childhood film filmed over several summers when he was a teen wiht friends where they did everything themselves and i believe there is no scrpt at all and he plays one of the main characters again. Those three films and I think Heavly Creatures he is working on them being resotred to 4K in a similar process to his last WWI footage restoration film, which will be hype. Loved your reaciton, would love to see you react to meet the feebles I think you would enjoy it just as much

    Peter Jackson made an excellent movie with Kate Winslet between this and LOTR, called Heavenly Creatures. It’s VERY eerie because it’s based on a true story about 2 best friends in New Zealand who kill one of their mothers when they’re going to be separated after having a creepy obsession with eachother. The real person Kate plays changed her name and is a crime/detective author now by the name of Anne Perry! Part of me wanted to bring the movie for her to sign when she was in my town for a book signing to see her reaction (she hates the depiction of what occurred btw) but I didn’t 🙃
