Go Crazy Over Horror Comedy ‘Mad Cow’!
We just caught wind of a new horror comedy that looks pretty moooving. From writer director Michael Wright comes Mad Cow, which begins when a crazed scientist finds his Frankenstein-like experiment goes horribly wrong unleashing a half-man half-cow creature on a rampage across an African Game Reserve.
Check out a long synopsis and two teaser trailer below.
Visit the film’s offical website for more.
“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!
Once brought to life the crazy creature goes on the rampage around the Boerewors Game Lodge wielding a chainsaw and leaving a trail of bad special effects in his wake. Enter under-cover 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, but as with most horror movies it’s never over when you think it’s over…”
The Wayans are out to cancel the Cancel Culture with Scary Movie, and the cast assures it will do just that.
“They sort of have an across-the-board style,” Anna Faris tells EW. “It’s always been a part of the Wayans Brothers, their electricity. ‘Can we offend you? Will you still love us? Come on, you still love us, don’t you?'”
Regina Hall concurs, promising the “boundary-pushing” sixth installment in the horror parody franchise will “offend everyone.”
EW has shared a batch of behind-the-scenes images from Scary Movie, which hits theaters June 5 via Paramount.
Faris and Hall are joined by fellow franchise favorites Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Dave Sheridan, Lochlyn Munro, Cheri Oteri, Chris Elliott, and Jon Abrahams in the legacy sequel.
The ensemble includes Damon Wayans Jr., Gregg Wayans, Kim Wayans, Benny Zielke, Cameron Scott Roberts, Heidi Gardner, Olivia Rose Keegan, Ruby Snowber, Savannah Lee Nassif, Sydney Park, Kenan Thompson, and Felissa Rose.
Michael Tiddes (A Haunted House) directs from a script by Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, original Scary Movie director Keenen Ivory Wayans, Craig Wayans (Scary Movie 2), and Rick Alvarez (A Haunted House).
The film will slash through reboots, remakes, requels, prequels, sequels, spin-offs, elevated horror, origin stories, anything with the word legacy in it, and every “final chapter” that absolutely isn’t final.
Scary Movie launched in 2000, followed by Scary Movie 2 in 2001. The Wayans’ involvement ended there, but the series continued with 2003’s Scary Movie 3, 2006’s Scary Movie 4, and 2013’s Scary Movie 5.
