Meet the Feebles (1989)
From his humble beginnings as a gore auteur, to the master innovator of some of Hollywood's grandest spectacles, Peter Jackson has dazzled audiences with his distinct, visionary style for more than 30 years. Through 'Bad Taste' and 'The Frighteners', two 'Lord of the Rings' trilogies and 'King Kong,' IMDb explores the unique trademarks of the Oscar-winning writer and director.

      Made on an extremely low budget considering the time-consuming process of working with puppets, the film went over budget and schedule.
    • Quotes

      Trevor: All right, you fat slag! Move your ass!

      Heidi: How dare you speak to me like that! You horrible, spiteful little rat!

      Trevor: I've heard better singing from a mongoose with throat cancer!

      Heidi: I won't stand for this treatment any longer. I'm an artiste. I demand respect.

      Trevor: Artiste, that's a good one.

      Heidi: That's it! I've had enough! I'm going straight to Bletch

      [runs off to Bletch's office]

      Trevor: You do that, darling!

    One of Peter Jackson's best!

    This is one hilarious sick movie that looks at puppets in a whole new way. This has everything from a chicken and an elephant involved in a paternity suit, a rabbit with STD, a drug addicted lizard, and a walrus cheating on his hippo girlfriend with a siamese cat. Well, watch out for Heidi!!! Excellent movie that will have you laughing so hard you won't know what hit you. If you have not seen this then see it!! Hopefully this will get the credit it highly deserves. Highly recommended!!!
