“It is actually the most fun I’ve had in a theatre all year and quite possibly the single best midnight movie of its era.”
-Ain’t It Cool News

SANTA MONICA, CA – An experiment in genetic engineering turns mild sheep into flesh eating animals gone wild in BLACK SHEEP arriving on DVD October 9, 2007 from The Weinstein Company and Genius Products LLC. As part of the new Dimension Extreme brand – home of the most intense, edgy and provocative programming, BLACK SHEEP writer/director Jonathan King provides a hybrid of outlandish humor and graphic gore in his feature film debut. When Henry Oldfield (Nathan Meister) returns to his family’s farm to sell out to his older brother Angus (Peter Feeney), he learns that Angus’ reckless genetic engineering program has infected thousands of sheep on their sprawling New Zealand farm and turned them into bloodthirsty predators. Featuring outstanding special effects by the renowned WETA Workshop (King Kong, Lord of the Rings), including masterful use of puppets and robots, BLACK SHEEP is a gory bloodbath drenched in black comedy as the heroes make their way through a spectacular rural landscape, dodging ravenous rams with blood-smeared fleece. With a talented cast of up and coming actors, this film is destined for horror cult glory. The Black Sheep DVD arrives with five deleted scenes, a blooper reel and much more. The Black Sheep DVD will be available for the suggested retail price of $24.95.
