Do NOT Eat During This Movie, You'll Throw Up For Sure!
Review created: 21/10/06(updated 21/10/06)

Story: After working on this movie for more than four years on an extremely tight budget (and with a cast and crew consisting only of himself and a group of close friends), filmmaker Peter Jackson eventually completed it with the help of the New Zealand Film Commission, who were very impressed with what they'd seen so far of Jackson's first cinematic effort. In BAD TASTE, a small New Zealand coastal town is taken over by the extraterrestrial Lord Crumb and his army of alien invaders, who are planning to harvest the inhabitants for an intergalactic chain of fast-food restaurants. But Derek (Jackson) and his mates from AIDS (the Astro Investigation and Defense Service) are sent in by the government to destroy the enemy at all costs and ensure the survival of mankind. With plenty of gross-out shock effects, grotesque humanoid aliens, and high camp value, it's easy to see why this film became a cult favorite and a big hit on the midnight-movie scene. Jackson would go on to direct the ultragory DEAD ALIVE, the acclaimed drama HEAVENLY CREATURES, and one of the greatest trilogies in cinema history THE LORD OF THE RINGS.

This Movie Was Great! ( Just seen it )
I was eating a hamburger during the movie and i shouldn't have done that LOL!
This movie is great!
Man amazing for a low budget movie.
Zombies or aliens trying attacking humans, especially beginning was cool, when he shot the first alien, he shot parts of his head off, then half a head still coming at him, he falls with his body upon his gun, he pushes gun inside him, other zombies coming, he shoots them, hilarious
Then he pushes body away, and goes away, a other zombie starts eating the dead alien's brains with a SPOON!!!
Guy falls down a clif, head busted open, brains pouring out, he tries to hold his brains in with a hat, then with a belt, hilarious lol.
Definately Recomendable, from beginning to end, only the aliens when there true form are shown are a bit bad, they could've done that a bit better, even on low-budget.
Buy, Rent of watch it on TV, You don't want to miss out on this one.
