Known in the USA as "Dead Alive", this movie was directed by Peter Jackson nine years before he took the helm for Lord of The Rings. Lionel Cosgrove's mother is bitten by a Sumatran rat-monkey at the zoo. She gets sick and dies, at which time she comes back to life, killing and eating dogs, nurses, friends, and neighbours who, in turn become zombies.

Paquita had a beautiful German Shepherd. I say "had" because Vera Cosgrove has just eaten him. Well, not quite ALL of him but there's not much left to be honest.
Paquita
Oh, Fernando! YOUR MOTHER ATE MY DOG!
Lionel
[Looking at the gory remains of the animal splattered across his mother's bed]
Not all of it!
Clip 2
Whilst trying to dig up his un-dead mother in the local cemetery, Lionel encounters Void and his gang of brainless (soon to be braindead) thugs.
[VOID is urinating on the grave of VERA COSGROVE]
Lionel
That's my mother you're p*ssing on.
Clip 3
Father McGruder is a bad-ass priest. Not only can he deliver a mean sermon but he can also deliver un-dead thugs straight into the afterlife.
Father McGruder
The devil is amongst us. Stay back, boy. This calls for divine intervention!
[THE PRIEST launches into a comical fight sequence in which he kicks the sh*t out of the un-dead thugs attacking LIONEL]
I kick ass for the LORD!
Clip 4
Uncle Les is an embarrassment. But he also has some prostate problems which means he has trouble peeing. Oh, and he's an a**hole.
Les
[Grunts pitifully as he tries to void his bladder. Eventually the flow starts]
Who's that, uh... little girl you've been seeing?
Lionel
What?
Les
You know... the little Latin number with the cute bum.
Lionel
Paquita.
Les
Oh yeah. Paquita. That's the one. Ooh, she's a bit of all right. Wouldn't mind her doin' the growl on me.
Clip 5
Two zombies are having sex in Lionel's dining room. He's preventing Uncle Les from going in there but the man has ears and assumes entirely the wrong thing.
[We hear sounds of two people having sex through the door]
Les
So, you found your Dad's old stag movies, eh?
[The sounds become more frantic and animalistic]
Is that the one with the donkey and the chambermaid?
