Brutal, blood-soaked red band trailer for Taiwanese horror The Sadness

September 23, 2021 by Gary Collinson

Raven Banner Entertainment has released a blood-soaked and extremely NSFW red band trailer for The Sadness, a new Taiwanese horror from writer-director Rob Jabbaz, which is being billed as “the most violent and depraved zombie movie ever made”.

Hyperbole? Perhaps, but as you can see below with the trailer and official promotional images, it certainly doesn’t seem to be holding back with the gore and gruesome imagery.

The city of Taipei suddenly erupts into bloody chaos as ordinary people are compulsively driven to enact the most cruel and ghastly things they can imagine. Murder, torture, and mutilation are only the beginning… A young couple is pushed to the limits of sanity as they try to reunite amid the violence and depravity. The age of civility and order is no more.

The Sadness is currently screening on the festival circuit, with full release details yet to be revealed.
