Critical Reaction
A great, crazy, fucked-up little New Zealand comedy ... it's a celebration of the stupidity of the daredevil profession, and it's early-Peter-Jackson-gory...
It's like a cross between the 'Road Warrior', 'Mad Magazine' and 'Jackass' ... and quite a bit funnier than most Hollywood comedies I've seen in recent years.

Short Synopsis
Every kiwi lad dreams of greatness. But for little Randy Cambell, the dream is as big as the stunts his not-so-death-defying father died attempting. Young Randy Cambell yearns to be NZ's greatest living stuntman, much to the chagrin of his aunt and uncle who understand that the petrol running in Randy's veins is bound to ignite one day. Can the love of a one-legged female Evil Knieval save Randy and break his descendants' long legacy of fiery and fatal confrontations with the grim reaper?
