Peter Jackson's "Dead Alive" - 7.5/10
"Lionel, a Mama's boy has the unwanted honor of having to look after his overbearingly evil mother. He ends up falling in love with a local woman who believes that they're destined together. In a moment of intentional sabotage of one of their dates, his mother is bitten by a mysterious creature that ends up zombifying her. It's only a matter of time before she rises from the dead a powerful, bloodthirsty zombie. It's only a matter of time before she starts infecting residents of the town and Lionel has to stop her...and them."
Started out kind of slow, but as the zombie infestation grows, so do the laughs and the hilarious (and inventive) special effects.
