That is Braindead. Specifically, it is the infamous and aptly named 'lawnmower scene.'

More on the subject, really this isn't a bad idea at all. I mean, clearly granting the power of flight to a lawnmower isn't the smartest thing ever, but strictly from an engineering standpoint, a lawnmower is shaped more or less like an aerofoil and thus could theoretically be made to fly with only a moderate amount of effort. I can't imagine it would be terribly stable, though; it's notable that this model has a flat handlebar, which appears to have been repurposed into a stabilizer.
