OK, I loved Braindead (Dead Alive), so I broke down and bought Bad Taste. Is it as good? I couldn't find it anywhere so I bought it off of Amazon.com. I've heard conflicting reviews, and I don't fully agree with some of Andy's reviews (example: Wizards, I HATED that movie).
if you liked Barindead you'll most likely like bad taste.

Private Joker, if you don't watch BAD TASTE then you will miss the one film that started Peter Jackson's career in the firstplace. Is it worth it? Oh yes, it IS WORTH IT! If you loved BRAINDEAD as much as I did, then you will indeed love BAD TASTE.
Which is better "Bad Taste" or "Meet The Feebles"?
That depends. If you liked Dead Alive, you're more sure to like Bad Taste than you are to like Meet the Feebles. They're both monuments of tasterlessness, but in different ways; BT is tasteless in the Dead Alive cartoonish-gore-to-the-extreme way, while MTF is more along the lines of John Waters' early stuff, in that it manages to gross out on every concievable level, and then find some new ones. From what I've read, Feebles is more of a love-it-or-hate-it film.
It's out on DVD almost everywhere (in the US anyway), so I hope you didn't pay too much for it on Ebay.
I bought it off of AMAZON.COM, and it was about 13 bucks including shipping and handling. I unfortunately don't have a DVD player so I bought a VHS tape. The cover has the alien holding up 2 fingers instead of just his middle one. GOSH FRIKKIN DANGIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't worry, that's just how English/NZers/Aussies flip the bird. The cover has always looked like that.
Don't buy anymore movies until you get a DVD player.
You're throwing your money away buying VHS.& you're not getting your moneysworth either.
BTW.It's nice to see I'm not the only one who hated Wizards!
