As of now, my review on IMDB is only the second for this movie. And, after seeing "Moose: The Movie" I wonder how anyone could rate this movie a 2 or say it isn't particularly funny. It's hilarious...and rarely have I ever laughed out loud this many times as I watched a film. In many ways, it's good, cheesy fun...much like "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes"...but quite a bit funnier.
The story begins with Zach arriving in the lovely town of Gangreen Gulch, Alaska. He's a new ranger assigned to the area and he's shocked to see what a bizarre hamlet this is....with puppet cooks and waiters in the local restaurant, a nearby mime academy as well as, of course, a rampaging demonic 'moosetaur'....an evil beast who is half man, half moose!!! Can Zach, or anyone else in this town, possibly stop the moosetaur before he kills again. Well, no...as he kills again and again and again....but it's not all bad, as some of the victims were just hippies.
The jokes in the film come one after another after another after another. A few fall flat, but surprisingly most don't. The film has a wonderful sense of humor and I really appreciated how the movie never once took itself seriously. I also loved all the tiny little touches you might not notice...which would provide ample reason to re-watch the movie. Very intelligently made despite having an entire cast of unknowns. It shouldn't be good considering it's minuscule budget (about $60,000 apparently)...but somehow it works and works very well.
