For those familiar with their horror, Peter Jackson as a filmmaking tour de force didn’t begin with Lord of the Rings trilogy, or even The Frighteners, the film that helped make his name in North America. It began with a small section in your local video store (if you were lucky), where the hardcore gore cognoscenti would flock to rent some of the most excessively repulsive films this side of Fulci.
Very few contemporary filmmakers have proffered up such over-the-top splatter as The Lord of The Rings, King Kong and The Hobbit director. Aliens eating vomit (Bad Taste), zombified pus dripping into custard (Braindead) and regurgitated pseudo-muppets (Meet the Feebles) are just the start in a series of burn-in-your-brain-nauseating images Jackson has ushered into the horror genre.
