Smack in the middle of his two horror masterpieces, Peter Jackson directed this little oddity. It's a vulgar take on The Muppet Show, but that's where the fun lies. Rather than look at some wholesome and cute puppets, these abominations come with juicy accents and crude behavior.
The idea is solid and there are some memorable moments scattered throughout, but its low-budget roots shine through once too often and some jokes are a little too easy. It does build up to a very worthy finale, where all characters come out guns blazing, but it's not quite the masterpiece I remembered it to be. It's still a lot of fun though.
