Huhu Attack! (2011)
Baz Luhrmann meets Peter Jackson in this audacious 1950s-style comedy-horror musical extravaganza, featuring a spectacular score performed by the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra. Set in Cold War-era rural New Zealand, HUHU ATTACK! is the story of two social misfits - mousy spinster, Ngaire, and traveling magician, Miles - who find love against a backdrop of small-town prejudice and 40ft-high mutant man-eating Huhu grubs!
