His filmmaker's credentials are above reproach. BTW, if you haven't seen Heavenly Creatures yet, I'd recommend renting it!
Watch this film and you will be left in no doubt what has springboarded both Kate Winslett and Peter Jackson into the Hollywood orbit; its a startling and original piece of cinema
His early films like Bad Taste, Meet the Feebles, were made on the slimmest shoe-string budgets and are classics in their own right
Peter Jackson may have sold out to Hollywood and that may not be for the best, but his pre-Hollywood films are clever and inventive

I know about that film, and if it pops up on free channel I might give it a chance, but pay for it? Nah...

If not, take a look, it will show you what a real woman director can do.Warning: no Thelma and Louise there... only good filmmaking.
FTR, I have seen clips from this and it does hold some curiosity for me. Besides, not every film has to have the social awareness of a film like Ridley Scott's Thelma & Louise to hold my interest. ;^)
