Mad Cow

Mad Cow (play trailer) (play stills) (press kit)

Synopsis:
Mad Cow is a fast-paced, crazy comedy horror movie that dares to go where Naked Gun, Scary Movie and Shaun of the Dead feared to tread.

Mad Cow sets out to spoof the zombie/horror movie genre in a new and totally insane way, following the story of a Frankenstein-like experiment that goes horribly wrong, with hilarious results.

Deep in the African Bush, a crazed scientist has stolen the body of a super-human android from a top-secret military research base with the not-exactly-original plan of world domination. But finding the body he has stolen has no head, he grabs the nearest thing he can find, a cow’s head from a butcher’s fridge and puts the two together - Mad Cow is born!

Wielding a chainsaw, the Mad Cow goes on the rampage around the Boerewors Game Lodge, leaving a trail of bad special effects in his wake.

Enter undercover cop Vince Chopper, who together with vegetarian-waitress-turned-weapons-expert Charlize, does battle with Mad Cow in a series of off-the-wall action-packed set pieces.

They defeat the monster, find romance and have a braai (South African barbeque) - but prepare yourself for a series of increasingly off the wall twists, as it’s never over when you think it’s over… until it’s over.
