Anyone else see the 1992 zombie comedy Braindead or Dead Alive? (its the same movie) I think it is Peter Jackson's fourth film as a director.

I doubt I would know about the movie if not for my brother telling me to watch it many moons ago.

It is free on youtube.

It is a slapstick zombie comedy and probably one of the goriest films of all time, but done in a comedic, lighthearted way, really.

From wiki

The film was released in a number of different versions. In some nations, such as the United Kingdom and Australia, the 104-minute film was shown in full.[12] In fact, the UK's classification board the BBFC found the film's gory content so light-hearted and comical that there was consideration on giving the film a 15 certificate, which would have granted it to be seen by a much younger audience. They ultimately decided to give the film an 18 rating because the amount of gore confounded the expectations of a 15 rating.[13]

In countries where the censors balked at the extreme gore, the film was initially banned or left unrated before being heavily cut. In Germany, a 94-minute version was seen with major cuts to some of the film's grislier scenes, but was widely ignored. A FSK 16 rated version was released in Germany under the American title Dead Alive, omitting almost the entirety of the violence. The uncut version, as well as several cut versions, are banned in Germany.[14] The gory violence has also caused the film to be banned in South Korea, Finland and Singapore.[15][16]
