Follow The Assassin through a forbidding world of tortured souls, decrepit bunkers, and wretched monstrosities forged from the most primordial horrors of the subconscious mind. Every set, creature, and effigy in this macabre masterpiece is hand-crafted and painstakingly animated using traditional stop-motion techniques. MAD GOD is a labor of love, a testament to the power of creative grit, and an homage to the timeless art of stop-motion animation. Ready your eyes. Ready your spirit. Prepare to meet your maker.

This is a true, old school midnight movie, meant to expand your mind, initiate conversation and perhaps inspire you to stay up late one night working on something creative. Everyone in college should be forced to watch movies like this. Go to Full Review David Sims The Atlantic 08/03/2022
There is a plot of sorts and plenty of grisly stop-motion violence, but Mad God is most impressive as a work of sheer atmosphere, a visual experience that is actually unlike any other. Go to Full Review Adam Nayman The Ringer 07/09/2022

Jack F @MovieFan111 Feb 12 Oh wow. This movie was crazy. It reminded me of the video game Bioshock a little bit. Adult stop motion film? Yes please! I'd say it's as gory and disgusting as Terrifier... as a stop motion picture! Absolutely insane. When I heard this movie took 30 years to make, my mind was blown. If any movie takes that long, the least you could do is give it five stars. So detailed! Imagery is the stuff of nightmare. I don't know how you think of those landscapes and monsters. Gotta be ultra creative I guess. And on top of all that, it's infinitely rewatchable! See more Nícolas Xavier E @NicolasXavier Dec 29 Not for everybody, but for anyone who wants to find something diferent, dark, and wildfully beautiful, it's totally worth it. See more Stephen C @bob25009 Dec 5 Success in 01 hour, 24 minutes, and 10 seconds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love animation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more Madam D @Madam1948 Nov 30 To me, this glorious stop-motion is about the history of life on earth with all its violence. In every potential arena. Beginning with god (as written in the old testament) war & lots of it, medical profession, religion, industry, etc. The gore is messy & all the visuals are mindblowing. See more Courtney K @c0urtn3y Nov 7 really weird. loved it. See more Simon T @RT83033895 Oct 28 Watch, enjoy and feel privileged to do so. Don't expect a beginning, middle and end. Think of it more that you have wandered into an art gallery and seen a glimpse into an artist's mind. See more Read all reviews
