This is the 30th film in the Stuttgart Fantasy Film Festival.
"The Sadness" was presented as a zombie film. That's wrong. It's not about zombies, but it's an easy mistake to make.
The film takes place in Taiwan. There's a pandemic caused by a disease called the Alvin Virus. Those who are infected become violent and sexually aggressive. The violence can involve biting, which is the similarity with zombies, but it can also take the form of stabbing people with a knife or chopping them up with an axe.
I've never seen a film with so much violence, blood and gore. You need a strong stomach to watch it. It divided the audience. Some found it artistic in its perversity, while others were disgusted. I needed time to acclimatise myself to the violence. It's extreme. Watch it at your own peril.
