Critics Consensus

Solid entertainment for viewers with twisted tastes, Mad Heidi is a midnight movie classic in waiting.

Daniel M. Kimmel

North Shore Movies

With absolutely no pretensions that it’s anything but one big joke, the makers of "Mad Heidi" take the beloved character from children’s literature and turn her into a figure of vengeance.

Rated: 2.5/5

A wink-of-the-eye film like Mad Heidi benefits from familiarity and claustrophobia.

What I Watched Tonight

A crazy film that deserves to garner a cult following - it’s bonkers, it's big, it's brash, and it’s definitely not perfect but it is a lot of fun (and who doesn’t like seeing the fascists get their comeuppance?)

Rated: 7.5/10

All in all, it’s a fun romp. You’ve got great acting, great visuals and absurd scenes like execution by Toblerone, so it’s easy to recommend.

Rated: 3/5

‘Mad Heidi’ should appeal to anyone with questionable taste and a twisted sense of humor.

It was a dumb fun ride. The only thing I wish it used 50 gallons of blood and not 25 lol. If you like low budget movies from independent companies, then go watch this one.

The Swiss Cheesiest Movie Ever Made. All the Swiss tropes and all the over the top gore you can take. If you spend the movie wondering where this Ultra Swiss Cheese comes from then you sill not be disappointed.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Mad Heidi is absolutely bonkers. This is a crowd-funded movie which is a actually quite enjoyable. Ridiculous, gory action, with a smoking hot heroine (Alice Lucy as Heidi) and an over the top performance from Casper Van Diem (Starship Troopers) as a ruthless dictator. Don't take it too seriously and you'll probably enjoy the campiness of this crazy film.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

A idéia era para ser um terror? Temos cenas bizarras, mas não cria tensão nenhuma. Se a idéia é criticar um governo ou situação atual, até existe, mas se perde na bestialidade do roteiro. O que tem de melhor é a arte e montagem.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars
