BRAIN DEAD / DEAD-ALIVE (1992) - Peter Jackson's Gory Years

  • サマリー

  • In my most recent episode of the Films I Own That I Haven't Watched (Yet), I'm sifting through my ever-growing DVD collection, exploring the early works of Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson. And film number three is "Braindead," also known as "Dead Alive." Join me as I delve into this horror-comedy classic for the first time and share my thoughts!


    Braindead (1992): Directed by Peter Jackson, "Braindead" (released as "Dead Alive" in some regions) is a gory horror-comedy film that follows the misadventures of Lionel Cosgrove (played by Timothy Balme), a young man living in 1950s New Zealand. After his overbearing mother Vera (Elizabeth Moody) is bitten by a Sumatran rat-monkey, she transforms into a ravenous zombie, leading to a chain of events that unleash a zombie outbreak in Lionel's town.

    As the zombie population grows, Lionel struggles to contain the outbreak while dealing with his domineering mother and navigating a budding romance with Paquita (Diana Peñalver), the woman of his dreams. Filled with outrageous gore, over-the-top violence, and dark humor, "Braindead" is a cult classic known for its inventive special effects and inventive kills.

    Despite its initial reception as a low-budget splatter film, "Braindead" has since gained a cult following and is celebrated for its absurdity and innovative approach to the zombie genre. Join me as I experience "Braindead" for the first time and share my impressions!
