Review of Mad Heidi

Mad Heidi (2022)
7/10
A well made, very bad movie
27 February 2023
I am not at all a fan of gore or *sploitation movies and started watching this by pure chance and a bit curious what "Swissploitation" might be.

It made me chuckle right from the start because of the very obvious Grindhouse-references and style, so i watched on. It is a parody alright and it does not take itself too serious.

While technically well made, they try really hard to make it "bad". Horribly (but quite possibly intentional) bad editing and directing. A wild story without any sense, tacky dialogues and of course bad acting all around.

Casper Van Dien, in my opinion, is one of the worst "actors" to ever have lived. Which made him kind of perfect for his role as Meili, the "Very Swiss Leader".

Since I grew up with the original "Heidi" the animated series, it was fun to see the original characters reappear in the movie, though very differently.

All in all good fun if you like this kind of stuff.
