Summary: Great movie bad transfer
Review: This movie is great. You will most defiently love it! The transfer on the other hand is without a doubt the worst job ever done. For that reason alone I wouldn't buy this disc. But it doesn't stop me from borrowing it to watch.

I just hate to give money to a company that did such a poor job. I hope they get there act together and redo this movie properly.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great Movie -- Terrible DVD
Review: Meet the Feebles is a hilarious parody of the Muppets. I love this movie, which is why I hate this DVD so much. I can accept the fact that there aren't any special features. I could probably even accept the fact that it's the 4:3 full screen version rather than the wide screen version. But, what I can't accept is the incredibly poor quality of the video and audio on this disk. This is easily the worst DVD I've ever seen. Apparently "Dead Alive Productions" (the division of Spectrum Entertainment that released this DVD) has nothing to do with Peter Jackson.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Worst DVD ever?
Review: Don't let the packaging fool you - this is simply the worst-produced dvd I have ever seen. (And I'm not speaking of the content of the movie - that's being saved for later.)

This dvd is clearly encoded from a very inferior source - it's also pan and scan, which stinks. The sound is muddied and very difficult to listen to, obscuring much of the dialogue. The print of the film was obviously a release print, with many scratches and missing frames. The transfer is very dark and muddy, oscuring many of the scenes and making it difficult to watch.

On top of all this, it appears that this may be taken from a vhs release of the film! And, there are encoding errors on the dvd, so that it gets stuck, or digital fragments appear.

That is what may make this the worst dvd ever. The quality of the tranfer and encoding is nowhere near good vhs standards, much less good dvd standards.

And then there is the film itself. This is one of those impossible to rate films, because many people will watch it and go "Yuck! This isn't a film, it's garbage!", while others, who enjoy the sicker things in life, with say "Cool!"

So, here's how you decide which category you are in:

If you enjoy watching puppets curse, vomit, defecate, urinate, fornicate, come down with venereal disease, do drug deals, do drugs, and shoot each other up with machine guns, then this film is right up your alley. It is NOT a children's film, that's for sure.

If you don't enjoy these things, then simply don't watch this film. You won't find any of the things that you enjoy about Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" films here. Absolutely nothing, except perhaps some careful planning.

And nobody, but nobody should support a company such as this, who releases rip-off dvds of such poor quality. I intend to try and get a refund for my copy.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Good idea, but the rest of the movie fails.
Review: Let it be known first off that I am a person who is near-impossible to offend. I loved Dead Alive and Bad Taste, and I was expecting the same humor and wit in this film.
Muppets on Acid. OK, good concept, and the visuals certainly were sick and twisted. But that's about where the credit due ends - there is nothing more to this movie that makes it redeemable, and that's why it gets one star.
About ten minutes into the film, it was dawning on me that I hadn't laughed or cracked a smile once yet. Twenty minutes later, I realized it again, and I shut the movie off. There are plots in the film, but they are there to just "have a point" to the movie, and they don't work. I don't think any humor was even ATTEMPTED in this film.
In the thirty minutes that I watched before I shut it off, I saw some graphic puppet sex that had no reason for being in there except for the reason that it could be easily done, and it would be gross. Again, I am not offended, but there was really no reason for it - just "because they could."
Also, I could hardly understand what the characters were saying with their warped voices placed upon New Zealand accents.
That was just the movie. The DVD itself is probably the worst I've seen yet. Grainy, dark, crappy extra features. . .get the VHS version, you won't be missing anything and you'll actually be getting a clearer version.
A huge disappointment; do not even bother.

Summary: what the [] is this !!!
Review: i dont really know how everyone can think this is such a good movie. i liked Dead Alive and i am about to watch bad taste but this movie is incredibly boring. i gave it two stars because i thought the movie had an intresting concept but it just didnt cut it. i fell asleep in the first hour of the film and just dont understAND WHAT EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT. IT DID HAVE SOME INTRESTING LINES IN IT THAT I THOUGHT WERE FUNNY THOUGH.

P.S. the dvd extras are worse than the movie!!!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Weird.
Review: Um, I have to say this movie did not make much sense to me. Perhaps that's because I was not under the influence of any mind-altering substances at the time that I watched it. Oddly, though, it was amusing, and did have some relatively funny moments.
Word to the wise - don't be fooled into thinking this is a children's movie and let your kids watch this one.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very Entertaining Movie, Lacking DVD
Review: Though I do recommend this movie for the great laughs and sudden shocks, I must post a negative point against this DVD. Sadly, it's lacking most everything that makes a DVD so enjoyable. There are no chapter divisions, no "Special Features", no cast and commentary, no Dolby Surround, no nothing. As a matter of fact, it seemed to have trouble handling anything past 2x fast-forward. ...Which, as you can guess, is maddening when you cannot skip from chapter to chapter. It could very-well just be an error in the product I recieved, but I'd rather warn those prospective buyers to find a more complete version, or borrow it from a friend to check quality. Once again, I love the movie. It's a biting, caustic example of the wit and hilarity Peter Jackson is known for, while being distributed by a lack-luster media mastering service.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: pretty funny
Review: I was expecting alot, and got some but not all. This movie is sort of funny, you must look past the boring main character and overlook the semi grainy video and find the humor in porn partaking puppets, and believe me its not that hard. Now don't think that the film quality is totally shot, it just seems too dark at times, but it just puts a little damper on what seems like a hilarious idea.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My favorite movie ever
Review: Meet the feebles is my favorite movie. Peter Jackson (The Frightners, Lord Of The Rings)has once again made a tremondesly funny film. I ecspecially like the charcters and how well they do the puppetry, ecspecialy the flashback vietnam scene.

Sincerly Big Hemia

Summary: Brandon Waters you lag!
Review: ...

I love the movie! I'd give it a 3.5 star rating! It is morally all messed up, and although I see some peeps saying here that they coulda' done this... Fact is, Jackson did it first! Want to see dysfunctional sinning puppets? Well then this is your flick!

But man this DVD [is bad]! A big fat .5 star rating here! I only got this version because it's one of those more obscure titles your never sure will be released again. So I figuered it was worth the small investment just in case. Hey let's face it, it doesn't have a following like Evil Dead which has spawned only about a half a dozen versions! The quality... It BLOWS! Any dissing review on this DVD's quality is not a fib or exaggeration! I'll also add, since I've seen this asked a few times, that the movie WAS originally shot in 1.85:1, thus on this horrid Dead-Alive Productions DVD version presented in fullscreen... You do have clipping! Unforgiveable in present DVD times!

So be patient! Wait for the version ...! It can't be worse than this one! Even the [darn] VHS version is better than this!
