Have you ever seen a movie so bad, you had to recommend i.docxaryan532920
Have you ever seen a movie so bad, you had to
recommend it to your friends? A movie so bad you liked it
because of how fun it was to watch and make fun of? Black
Sheep wants very badly to be one of those movies. It falls short
for me however, because it also tries to be an actual horror
movie at the same time, lacking the satirical edge a film trying
to mock how awful it is needs. This makes the film rather
monotonous, and you find yourself rooting for the sheep to just
kill everyone already, just so it will all end and you can get on
with your life.
We start out on a lovely New Zealand farm, spread out on a
lovely country side, with a lovely dog, and a lovely pair of
siblings, all frolicking happily together. When the younger boy
Henry goes to the house, the older brother axe murders the
boy’s pet sheep. Then wearing the sheep’s carcass, he hides in
the barn to scare his younger brother. While Henry is on the
ground screaming in terror, the grandmother comes out and
tells them to stop playing around, that there has been an
accident, and their father has been killed. We suddenly jump
years in the future, and meet the adult Henry who now has a
pathological fear of sheep. Already knowing the title of the
film, of course we the viewers know this is going to serve him
well. The first thing I notice, and cannot stop noticing during the entire film, is the horrendous audio
track. It’s not that the audio is bad, it’s that it is too good. It is painfully clear that every line of audio
was recorded in the studio after the fact and over-layed onto the film, leaving everything feeling out of
sync despite the words they are saying being in line with their mouths.

The movie goes on to use all the classic techniques of ridiculous horror movies, but it can never
make up its mind about what it wants to be. I was never able to decide whether or not the director,
Peter King, was trying to make an actual horror film, or if he was trying to parody one. It is clear
horror movies are being made fun of, but the movie never goes into full parody mode. The danger
from these sheep are real, and it goes deeper than just being killed. No it is more like a zombie
plague, where if you get bitten you transform. That’s right, weresheep or sheeple are another real
danger to anyone in the area. It’s so bad it is comedic, and there is some definite comedy, but there is
no real satirical feeling to what is going on. It’s a complete contradiction that prevented me from ever
really getting into the movie.

3. Joshua Siegel
Writer | Producer | Director
An only child born in Arizona and raised in Kentucky,
Joshua has been acting since an early age in theater and
television. Growing up, his passion for creative story-
telling was further explored by creating art, fiction, role-
playing games, and comic books.
Joshua is a graduate of the Savannah College of Art &
Design where he studied illustration and film/video.
He has since worked on both sides of the camera:
acting, writing, and directing projects for Arcadian
Entertainment and companies across the globe. He is
currently developing a sci-fi project called “Dream
Raiders”.
Director’s Statement
After making several short films, I decided that my first feature should be a low budget horror
written around locations that were easily accessible. The story of “Bloodwood” came from watch-
ing documentaries about apes, grizzlies, and other apex predators. About the same time, reality
TV series about “monster hunters” became popular and I wondered what would happen if such a
group happened upon something real and just as terrifying as any monster... people. More specifi-
cally, people who had lost their humanity to a sickness that exposed their most primal, violent
nature.
“Bloodwood” draws inspiration from many of my favorite films, from “Predator” to “The Hills
Have Eyes”. I tried to make it stand out from other survival horror movies with a dose of zany
humor, enough to give the audience moments to laugh without taking them out of the story.
Casting was critical. Because the lead actors were playing a documentary film crew, I looked for
people with experience on both sides of the camera. Almost everyone had multiple duties on set
and pitched in wherever help was needed.
Most of us had regular jobs, so we filmed mostly Friday through Sunday at locations that were
dramatic but easily accessible. Some would argue with my definition of “easily accessible”, as
several locations required up to ninety minutes hiking in and out. I think it was worth it. The
scenery of “Bloodwood” is breathtaking, and I hope our beautiful locations will draw more film-
makers to Northern California.
Making “Bloodwood” was a dream come true. The experience honed my storytelling skills and
introduced me to many creative people who have become close friends. I hope our audience will
have as much fun watching “Bloodwood” as we had making it.
