Peter Jackson did Dead Alive? I'd heard of Bad Taste and Dead Alive, but I didn't know he did both of 'em.
I'm also curious about... The Cars That Ate Paris!
Also, speaking of schlock, has anyone seen those Moreau movies Jack likes so much? One of 'em was on the Scream channel a while ago but I never got through the whole thing.

My witty similes will spread across the world like creamy peanut butter.
The Island of Dr Moreau from the 70's (?) is awesome (well, maybe not awesome, but good anyway). The more recent version with Val Kilmer is total and utter crap, mainly IMHO because Marlon Brando has become a fat, stupid, contemptible, arrogant bastard! 
The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ... The piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.

I've all of his films, except for "Forgotten Silver". Feebles is hilarious, it's like the Muppets on Acid. Great, now you made me think about that fly in the bathroom. Ugh...

You'll think it's pretty lame once you've seen the original (Island of Lost Souls) with Charles Laughton. (Lota, the panther girl - wow.)

No argument on the latter point, but Mini-Marlon is a hoot, and Kilmer and Brando try to outdo each other in seeing who can chew the most scenery. It's a hilarious film if you approach it with the right mindset. A classic of bad cinema.
