Work In Progress

This article is still under construction. It may contain factual errors. See Talk:Bad Taste for current discussions. Content is subject to change.

Bad Taste (1987)

Bad Taste is a 1987 horror comedy that was the first feature length film directed by Peter Jackson. Jackson also has an acting role in the film.

The following guns were used in the movie Bad Taste


Smith & Wesson Model 29

First gun seen in the film. After Barry (Pete O'Herne) fails to lose a blue-shirted human impostor who has trailed him from the deserted town, he resorts to using the team's Smith & Wesson Model 29 on the alien.

Later the team's unstable Ozzy (Terry Potter) calls the Magnum when the team preps for the manor infiltration and uses it for the rest of the film.

IMI Uzi

Derek (Peter Jackson) uses an IMI Uzi sub-machine gun at the start of the film. The weapon is seen again later in the hands of an alien.

IMI Uzi also appears in the cover of September 1981 issue of Soldier of Fortune that Ozzy is reading while waiting Barry to report back.

It's interesting to note that Peter Jackson went about crafting most of the guns himself for the movie.

The prop Uzi being fired. You can tell this weapon is fake because the bolt doesn't move during firing and no casings are being ejected. Peter Jackson added the muzzle flashes in later during post-production.

Sterling MK IV SMG

Three Sterling MK IV Submachine guns are used by Frank, Barry and Ozzy. In the "Good taste made Bad Taste" documentry, Director Peter Jackson explains how he made these guns himself out of aluminum pipe and plastic. He doesn't specify if he made the other guns but nonetheless they're quite impressive.

AKS-47

This is the weapon of choice for most of the aliens in the movie. Again, this was another replica made by Peter Jackson for the movie.

There appears to be two types AKS(s) shown in film. One has the AKM-style slant cut muzzle brake.

Beretta Model 1935

When The Boys are getting out of the manor, the alien who blows their cover pulls out a Beretta Model 1935 at the Boys.

It is also used by some of the alien mooks during the shoot-outs.

Walther P38

Used by one of the aliens playing patty-cake who are killed by Ozzy when the firefight starts and also a drunken alien who Ozzy shoots straight in the forehead.

Walther PPK

After the firefight starts, Lord Crumb (Doug Wren) gets a Walther PPK stashed in a drawer.

Browning Hi-Power

Barry uses what looks like a Browning Hi-Power pistol after his Sterling jams. It appears that this is a real gun because there is recoil, smoke and ejecting cartridges. Apparently, the New Zealand film commission didn't allow Peter Jackson to use blank firing guns in this movie which is why he made replicas and added in the effects during post-production. Handguns are legal to own in New Zealand so Peter wouldn't of had much trouble using them in the movie. The actors also behave like they're firing a real gun during these scenes. Full auto weapons on the other hand are restricted in New Zealand which explains the use of replicas for the "bigger" guns.
