I love this movie! Whilst it is not what you would call a good film, it is so funny and original that you cannot help yourself from loving it! The plot is completely bizarre; an old farmer has sex with one of his goats to make it produce more milk, the next thing you know it has given birth to a baby with a goats head and a baby's body! It grows up with the family but is tied into a sack and thrown in the river after breaking the farmer's beer bottles. So it carries out a ghastly revenge with very few survivors.
If you are easily offended, repulsed or are squeamish, stay away. If, however, you find farting, sex and gory killings funny, go out and buy it!

This is one of the funniest films I have seen! It's like "Alien" on the farmyard with lots of bizarre characters, outrageous gags, neat twists and scary bits. It was made on no money, and anyone who doesn't appreciate it is a dork.
This film was meant to be sh*te - that is what makes it so funny. It is one of the most hilarious films I have ever had the pleasure of viewing and a must if you like films like braindead - same sort of humour. The farts and belches ring through the incestuous family of the Macdonalds - who are the sort of stereotypical farmer types that we all secretly enjoy believing in. Line of the film is: 'Will, who the f*ck's will?" - you have to see the film to find out why. Also worth appreciating is the completely non predictable ending - a rare gem.
The everyday tale of the McDonald family, (Father Gyles, his wife, two sons and a daughter... all called Ronald), who live their disgusting lives on their farm on an island off the coast of Cornwall. When sent to get their goat "seen to", the drunken Gyles (the superb Michael Balfour) does the job himself. The resulting birth of a half human half goat creature leads to all hell breaking loose. The tone of this film is not unlike the evil dead, dark but funny. The performances hit just the right note, and the special effects are surprisingly good. The humour is gross, but the film hits most of its targets. Sadly it was one of the last films Michael Balfour and Michael Ripper ever made. Still, not a bad way to bow out. Recommended.
This IS one of the worst movies that I have ever seen. But it is fully compensated by the infamous "Your a bit dry" scene involving a handfull of lard, and a wife. It also involves the birthplace of a friend of mine, that'll be "CORNISH" and anything that makes fun of that place is great. Yes it is bad, yes the acting is atrocious and yes it is foul in all the places that movies shouldn't be. But it makes you laugh, cringe and scream and groan. What modern day hollywood thriller does that!!!!!!!!(And means it...O.K Runaway Car with Judge Rheinhold does all that and more but it is the best movie of all time, in it's genre.)

- TriviaThe filmmakers had an initial budget of £50,000, raised from a house sale, but then ran out of money and had to halt production. All attempts at funding in the UK exhausted, they went to Cannes to see if they could recruit some sponsors but all they came away with was a quote for their poster from John Waters. Undeterred, they continued advertising in many magazines and papers with the ad "Film company seeks money for completion of feature film". A businessman reader of "Private Eye", a satirical magazine in the UK, then coughed up an additional £27,000. Production was resumed almost a year after the first shutdown, only this time the leading man was unavailable and his part had to be re-cast and all his scenes re-shot. All in all, the entire production took roughly 3 1/2 years.
