Kottentail (2007)
One of the best horror/comedies ever made
It's not often that an independent film can make me laugh until tears roll down my cheeks but that's exactly what happened as I watched Kottentail. The film begins with a beautiful, buxom, blonde scientist doing some experiments on a laboratory rabbit. Later that night two PETA wannabe's decide to do their good deed and break into the labs, releasing the tortured animals. When they get there all they find is the aforementioned rabbit, and they do set it free. Just like in any good horror movie, the rabbit soon attacks someone(an immigrant farmer), who then begins to undergo an odd transformation. Excellent jokes, gore and hijinx ensue.
What really makes this movie work is a fantastic screenplay. It doesn't rely on fart jokes and gross out scenes to affect the viewer, if gives us an odd assortment of memorable characters and puts them in a crazy situation that they fight to survive. It perfectly plays off the horror movie stereotypes but still manages to surprise you. I can say, without a shadow of a doubt, Kottentail is one of the best horror/comedies ever made. If you're a fan of B movies and are willing to overlook a low budget, you must add this one to your collection because you'll want to watch it over and over again.
