MOVIES.COM Review: Fresh Meat is the Best Horror-Comedy out of Tribeca!

Best Horror-Comedy: Fresh Meat

"It’s as outrageous as it sounds, but it works because director Danny Mulheron and company don’t hold back in the least. Just about every single character is off his or her mind, going from sensible helpless victim to maniacal villain, or vice versa, and the dance between the two is amusingly mesmerizing."

GAWKER's Rich Juzwiak "The funniest horror movie I saw was Danny Mulheron's Fresh Meat, which is from New Zealand and accordingly zany."

Ashley Davis
 on TRULY DISTURBING quips "what do you get when you cross Quentin Tarantino with horror and home invasion??? FRESH MEAT. This film, from New Zealand, is oddly refreshing–adding a little zest and spice to prison breaks and home invasions we far too often see go stale.

Without giving too much away, the movie is gorey, bloody, action-packed, full of surprises, and downright funny."

"There’s a certain expectation that comes with attending a horror-comedy with a ridiculously on-the-nose title. And in that respect, “Fresh Meat” delivers on its promise as a deliriously off-the-wall splatterfest with absolutely zero pretension."

HORRORCULT FILMS gives Fresh Meat 8/10 stars, calling it "a unique experience…captivates in its beauty and tons of sexual perversions while making you laugh out loud at its bizarre silliness."

"Fresh Meat is wrong in so many ways, and it is 100% NOT PC, and the film is a total blast from start to finish."

"…The director has a very bright future. His way of building on a simple idea and making it into something far more than we ever imagined is fantastic, and Fresh Meat is simply bursting with ideas and charm."

"Fresh Meat is so much fun it hurts, and those that enjoy their horror that doesn’t take itself too seriously, and can relax and have a laugh, then this film will deliver everything you need. There is so much good stuff here I could go on all night listing what made me laugh or cheer in total joy."

"If you can turn off your serious head and just go with it, Fresh Meat delivers a whopping 90 minutes of pure joy. Fun, sexy, violent and at times a little sickening, this is what horror comedies are all about. Tasty!

Rating: 8/10"
