MadS
Directed by David Moreau
18-årige Romain är på väg till en fest, men ska bara stanna till hos sin langare. Han får ett nytt piller och är nu mer än redo nattens vimmel. Men den skadade kvinnan han plockar upp från vägkanten blir början på en mardrömsspiral av surrealistisk galenskap. MadS bjuder på högoktanig spänning i en vansinnesfärd till skräckthriller, filmad i en sammanhängande tagning.

MadS Ratings & Reviews
- Chris Maguire14 augusti 2025Highly intriguing documentary
- Paul Walsh3 mars 2026I think this movie is brilliant. It is done in a very long take and sees an apocalypse as it is actively happening. Loved it!
- thereelvoice28 mars 2025MadS is a single shot zombie outbreak film that follows the chaos from patient zero to the inevitable breakdown of society. And it is absolutely AMAZING! If you’re a fan of zombie films, MadS is a fresh take on the genre that you won’t forget! Easily one of the most creative movies I have seen in a genre that has been through every twist, variation, and scenario you can think of! MadS is worth your time!
- ZombieHome12 januari 2026The first half is quite good. The second half is so stupid that ruined the whole movie for me.
- punchsplosion12 oktober 2025The most original zombie movie I’ve seen in years. A non-stop rollercoaster ride with top tier practical gore effects, directed by someone with uncompromising vision. Watch it if you can handle gore and are down to be a little disturbed. Never gets TOO disturbing.
- Kevin Ward1 juli 2025Pretty seamless one-take (one-fake) film. I will never not be impressed with how filmmakers are able to accomplish these, traveling from location to location, moving from cars to vans to motorcycles etc. Like crossing those train tracks and beating that train…was that planned? Really cool stuff. Not a lot (if any characterization) but this is a fun ride nonetheless. POV shifts help to shake things up when there’s risk of the narrative running stale. Definitely worth checking out.
- cultfilmliker14 maj 2025Short, sweet, intriguing nonstop action horror. A well-crafted blend of (great) influences, both foreign and domestic All of those driving scenes seem like total terrors to shoot! That hallway sequence was messed up. Kafkaesque and a trip for sure. I always wanna make an Irréversible connection when there’s an attack in an underpass in a film Fasted infected ever.
- Michael Heimgartner26 april 2025Director David Moreau, who previously delivered the intense home invasion thriller Ils (2006), returns with MadS, a gripping and highly atmospheric French survival thriller that leaves a strong impression—both technically and emotionally. One of the film’s most impressive elements is its daring one-take execution. From start to finish, the camera weaves through the chaos without a visible cut, creating an intense feeling of immediacy and claustrophobia. It’s clear that enormous effort went into planning and choreographing every movement. The result is immersive and cleverly constructed, making the viewer feel as though they are trapped alongside the characters. The acting is another major highlight. The cast does an excellent job of portraying real emotional evolution under extreme circumstances. Their performances feel raw and authentic, pulling the audience into the characters’ psychological struggles and survival instincts. The film also hints at a much larger world beyond the immediate story. The end credits, which are haunting in their own right, deepen the mystery and make you crave more information about the world-building and the events leading up to the film’s harrowing situation. This lingering sense of wanting to know more is a testament to how effective MadS is in sparking the viewer’s imagination. However, while the technical execution and atmosphere are outstanding, the story itself feels a bit too lean at times. Some viewers might find themselves wishing for more narrative substance to match the visceral experience. MadS is a well-crafted and technically impressive thriller that benefits greatly from its one-take ambition and strong performances. If you appreciate films that throw you headfirst into tension and leave you wanting more about the world they hint at, MadS is absolutely worth checking out
- Oʂɯαʅԃσ Rσყҽƚƚ9 mars 2025The one-shot approach brings a frantic, visceral quality to the story, as though the audience is experiencing it right along with the characters. From practical effects to the performances, the film takes no prisoners.
- Scott14 december 2024I’ll give them their flowers because long takes are hard to pull off, but in this case I felt it didn’t always add to the movie. When it did work the movie is claustrophobic and panicked, but often gives way to a lot of dead air.
- B.Ross31 oktober 2024It wasn't terrible, but a large portion of the film was dedicated to imitating the idle animations of a zombie in Left4Dead. Many gestures, much screaming.
