On tonight's "Starvin Marvin" rerun, one of the mutant turkeys and Chef each paints half of their faces blue. I remember that Mel Gibson also did this in the "Passion" episode.
What's it supposed to signify?

It's something Scots used to do when they went into battle to terrify their enemies.
Hence why they did it in Braveheart.

The whole scene with Chef giving the speech in front of the town was a tribute (or parody) of Braveheart as well.

Almost word for word. We may presume the turkey leader said essentially the same thing, as well.

It's from Braveheart, not entirely uncoincidentally starring Mel Gibson.

It's also parodied in "BASEketBall".
