Saturday, April 21st - 11:30 pm - Oak Street Cinema   Director: Jonathan King   The Oldfield farm is a beautiful and sprawling haven nestled within New Zealand. Henry Oldfield (Nathan Meister) is a skilled farmer and loves tending to the farm, but the death of his father and a stress induced phobia of sheep forces him away.

Returning to the farm after a fifteen-year absence, Henry tries to reconnect with his past. The only problem is his brother, Angus (Peter Feeney), has been performing genetic experiements on the sheep. The experiments go horribly wrong, producing a strain of sheep that have a distinct taste for blood. This genre bending horror/comedy begs the question: With the potential of more than 40 million bloodthirsty sheep, can the world survive?

Mankind faces a danger far beyond a stampeding mob of bleating, woolly carnivores, as one bite from an infected sheep causes a horrific mutation into a were...sheep! Created with the help of Weta Workshop (creators of the creatures in the Lord of the Rings films) to provide animatronics, special make-up effects and other trickery to bring the sheep monstrosities to life in gory detail.

Director Jonathan King's, first feature Black Sheep, combines the horror/comedy genre to create a fantastical fable that will surely find a cult audience.
