Meet The Feebles

This ones an early film by Peter Jackson (King Kong) but his early work is NOTHING like what you would expect from him now! Meet The Feebles is a strange one to try and explain to those who haven't seen it. Think of The Muppets on crack. Or the whole of Sesame Street being alcoholic, cheating, swearing assholes. That's essentially this movie in a nut shell.

Were introduced to a bizarre world where "The Feebles" are all manner of celebrity singing/dancing animals. Were introduced to various Feebles characters and their lives/mishaps. I forget their names off hand but there's a chain smoking event organiser/agent with a rats face who is pretty funny throughout and into all aspects of filth - even recording beastiality porn with some of the Feebles!

There's a dumb dirt person elephant who deny's that this kid is his despite its obvious trunk and giant ears LOL. The main manager is a cigar chomping seal who's wife is the lead singer of The Feebles, a hippo and diva conscious about her weight. Again, I forget the exact plot it all revolves around as this film is just one big pisstake out of the Muppets and the industry as a whole. The seal manager guy cheats on his hippo wife and from what I remember - she guns down the entire set and kills them all. The elephant deadbeat dad jumps in the firing line to save the son he denied was his.

The plot to this one doesn't matter much as I imagine the director was on a lot of drugs when he made this movie. It's not so much sickening or disturbing and for the life of me I can't see why it makes anyone's lists other than to troll people into watching an hour and a half of its insane plot! I enjoyed the dark humour in places, and it was actually a relatively enjoyable film comparing to some others I own/watch but it's just not really a disturbing movie other than in the fact of "The director must be disturbed to have ever thought this would be a decent idea!". It doesn't rate highly on my list at all, and I'd advise the majority of you to avoid it even if I didn't think it was THAT bad. This is one for the cult fans only. I liked it, most probably wouldn't. It's still hard imagining Peter Jackson ever committing to this!
