Avg Customer Rating: 
Product Description: The grossest movie ever made, this quintessential splatter film details the tender story of a henpecked boy, his overbearing mum, and a nasty little Sumerian rat-monkey that turns people into voracious zombies. In lesser hands, this ne plus ultra viscera-fest would be so disturbing as to be nigh-unwatchable, but the incredible energy and imagination of director Peter Jackson makes it a first-class guilty pleasure, with plentiful helpings of gallows humor (the scripture-quoting, kung-fu-dispensing priest is a highlight) and a taboo subtext that Sigmund Freud would have loved. Essential viewing for gorehounds and anyone else with a high tolerance for flying entrails. The director would later tone down the gore (but not the manic enthusiasm) for the sublime Heavenly Creatures and The Frighteners. --Andrew Wright

Customer Reviews
ALWAYS get the unrated version
this is without a doubt the greatest horror movie of all time. never ever watch the rated version because it is missing 10 min worth of glorious little 2 to 10 second frames of absolute bloody horror goodness. without these scenes it becomes the WORST horror movie of all time and destroys all hope for a better world and not to mention a great film watching experience.

Dead Alive
If you enjoy horror movies with some over the top splatter and humor you will most likely enjoy "Dead Alive". Peter Jackson directs one of his first entries masterfully and creates another winner in this genre. Good storyline and effects makes this worth at least a rental and for those into these horror comedies a buy. A young man, that is a "momma's boy", realizes his mother has been bitten by a Zombie monkey that causes her to want to feed on human flesh. He must go to extremes to keep his mother under control and not let word get out. Good quality DVD with good replayability. If you enjoyed this catch the "Evil Dead" movies.

A hilarious splatter comedy.
Dead-Alive (Foreign title: Braindead) is a hilarious splatter comedy with gallons of blood. literally!
The film is extremely funny and gory and this film is so gory, it contains one of the goriest scenes in movie history... THE LAWNMOWER SCENE!
With a 3,000,000 dollar budget, some of the goriest scenes look realistic. however some scenes look cheesy such as when we first see the Sumatran Rat Monkey.
Overall, Lots of laughs, Lots of blood, Lots of gore, and lots of custard. 8.4/10.

More gore than HG Lewis
This is one of the most underrated horror movies of all time. There isn't much to be said besides watch this movie if you haven't seen it yet.
