When I was a kid back in France, when I used to go to the videostore to rent some videos, I would always get petrified by the VHS cover of this movie.

" Date: 10/13/2019 Viewed: Amazon Prime Re-watch Note: Bad Taste still kicks ass and it is my second favorite Peter Jackson movie next to Braindead (1992). The action, gore, and humor is over the top and awesome. This movie is so much fun to watch because the movie knows how to be funny and violent at the same time. I also love how this movie has that home video quality to it giving it that special charm. Not to mention, the movie has a fun cast of characters that are memorable in my opinion. "

"Peter Jackson's first movie is about brain-eating aliens setting shop in a small town and being hunted by a group of four crazy badasses. The name tells you the nature of the confrontations and humor with which the plot is approached. "
