Don't listen to the negative reviews

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Madcow is a spoof of the Frankenstein film. In this version a cow's head is attached to a super human body. This creature secures a chain saw and goes around killing people. The film makes fun of movie techniques used in action and horror films. It was at times amusing, but never a belly laugh. The girl reading her lines from a clipboard I thought was the best part.Guide: F-word, nudity (Lola the body double)

MAD COW is a shot on video comedy horror film, made in South Africa for a change. Thus we have some interesting locations including a hunting lodge rather than the usual American or British woodland. I suppose you could class this film in the same vein as the likes of EVIL ALIENS, a film I thought was terrible but which looks pretty decent compared to these homemade stinkers.And MAD COW does stink, unfortunately. It's about a bunch of characters menaced by a human-cow hybrid, which is literally a guy wearing a cow head. Various weapons are used in the cheap gore scenes, while the script tries very hard indeed to be funny but fails miserably at all times. No surprise that Troma put this out, as with the poor direction and campy performances this is the typical Troma concoction and simply not worth the bother of watching.

I just watched Mad Cow for the first time and I loved it.No, its not CGI or made on a multi million dollar budget.BUT...yes, it is funny! Its one of those indie films that given the chance could rise to be a cult classic. Clever writing gives this script the edge above other comedy horror films.And the best part? Its written in this classic Monty Python mantra that makes you bust a gut with every line. I've actually seen it a couple of times and am amazed on the things I pick up on the second or third time around.It also doesn't hurt that there is a lot of eye candy in this film...sure to please all.

Mad Cow was only somewhat entertaining. Aside from the 2 minutes of suspense, it was ridiculously stupid and poorly written.It reminds me of the American film Mad Cow released in 2008 which was equally as poorly made. I think it reaches out to only a very specific and very small population. you have to be alright with fake looking gore and borderline gore porn. And even then, it leaves quite a lot to be desired.The filmmakers should have invested in cg rather than poor actors who were paid more than their lack of talent warranted.The whole movie was very awkward as though it was deliberately trying to be bad. Anybody who would waste time and money to make (and moviegoers-to watch) something like this is clearly mental.
