Hahahahaha! I'm still laughing from just how gross-out Sir Peter Jackson's first two films are! He sure has come a long way since then! Just imagine if the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies, as well as King Kong, were helmed by him back THEN! =)

**A disgusting movie. Not recommended after meals.** What can I say after seeing this movie? Guess I shouldn't have seen this after dinner. The film is disgusting, perhaps one of the most disgusting I have ever seen. I say this for the worst reasons. It really is a film that makes you vomit due to the images and situations it presents to us. It doesn't scare us, it never scares us. And no, it never makes us laugh,…

This is both the funniest and the goriest horror movie I have ever come across. It's also the _only_ horror movie my wife will watch (we own the DVD and have watched it together multiple times). Not for the squeamish!
