This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

I thought that was a very extreme movie and it does take a couple of times to get through a lot of the nonsense, overall it was a fresh take on killers or being killed. This is a low budget movie but with a big dollar bang. Sarah Lassez the female lead plays the killer and the victim, really how often do you see that. Give it a watch before you make up your mind. It is raunchy over the top blood, gore and blasphemy. If you like sex,violence,comedy and drama well you will get here. The story will keep you going what the hell but meanwhile there is a lot of eye candy to be had. Plus you will be surprised at some of the actors that are in the movie.

I really have no other way to describe MAD COWGIRL. There's a lot of stuff going on in this film - probably a lot of "deep" symbolism and whatnot, but it's all so jumbled together that I personally couldn't find anything of real note in this film other than it's complete "oddness"...A young female meat-inspector contracts some sort of brain-tumors from consuming tainted meat that her brother (with whom she has some sort of vague incestuous relationship with) provides for her. A pre-tumor obsession with kung-fu flicks and a local pastor (played by Chekov from the STAR TREK TV series) causes her post-tumor delusions to manifest themselves in strange ways - namely, with the obsession of knocking off a gang of kung-fu masters from some TV show that she watches on a regular basis, and having weird fantasies/nightmares involving priests...There's quite a bit more to MAD COWGIRL than what I've mentioned above, and if the film itself was very notable on any level, I'd go into more depth. As it is, this one is a collection of interesting ideas that just doesn't feel fully "realized". As for the good points: The acting, camera-work, etc...are all pretty decent for an indie film. No real complaints in the "technical" department. There's also quite a bit of campy dark-humor that works on some levels. Unfortunately (and on to the bad points): none of it amounts to anything. It seems as though MAD COWGIRL had a lot to say in terms of social-commentary - namely things to do with consumerism, perhaps the hypocrisy of religion, etc...but it was all so vague that I couldn't decide if these elements were actually intended to be in the film, or if I were just reading my own interpretations into what could really be considered just a jumble of randomosity. Also, the pacing seemed a bit off. Things would get moving for a while and then become dull and tedious for stretches, making it hard to pay attention to the total product. My overall impression with MAD COWGIRL, is that it was weird, but not really in a good way, and that nothing really stands out about it in terms of content - meaning, if you asked me anything about this film a week from now, I'll have already forgotten about it. Not terrible in terms of low-budget, odd-ball films - I just didn't get anything at all out of it (P.S. - for the sleaze fans, there's a few shots of the lead actresses tits and a little bit of gore - but nothing to write home about)...5/10

What a damn shame! Never before I encountered a movie with such potentially brilliant story ideas, and yet somehow it ended up being an indescribably irritating and tragically dull mess! The main character, as well as most of the supportive ones, is probably the most fascinatingly eccentric person to ever lead a modern horror adventure and the situations she encounters are inventive and freaky as hell. Sounds terrific, but then what went wrong? I tell you what went wrong; director Gregory Hatanaka keeps on interrupting his own fabulous concepts with pseudo-artistic nagging and visual gimmicks that totally ruin the pace and the low-budget exploitation atmosphere. The young, intelligent and sexy Therese is the ideal woman. Therese is a nymphomaniac, desperately in love with a sinister TV-evangelist, but she also won't say no to some lesbian sex or even an incestuous relationship with her crazy brother Thierry. She's a food inspector and he imports meat of questionable quality standards. Convinced she's infected with the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease after eating one of her brother's Canadian steaks; Therese slowly loses her mind and starts to believe she's the Kung-Fu fighting heroine of her own favorite grindhouse movie "The Girl with the Thunderbolt Kick". The plot is so demented it becomes brilliant, like Tarantino on acid, especially when Therese considers herself to be on a mission to annihilate the Ten Tigers of Kwan Tang, or whatever they're called. It's a really regrettable to announce that – according to me personally, at least – the ingeniousness of the plot is brought down by experimental editing, exaggeratedly hectic camera-work and the director's super massive ego. "Mad Cowgirl" is gory, sleazy and surrealistic, but it quite isn't the homage to rancid 70's exploitation director Hatanaka intended it to be. It's more reminiscent to Gregg Araki's "The Doom Generation", only with even more nastiness and dementia. Sarah Lassez is a rather talented young actress and I hope she'll be offered some better screenplays in the near future. Young cult icon and inexplicably cool dude James Duval is his usual confused self as Therese's brother and I'm sure nobody expected Star Trek veteran Walter Koenig to appear in a production like this, and definitely not in the unconventional role of uncanny TV-preacher. The film contains loads of unexplained – but rather fascinating – little elements, like some of Therese's acquaintances speaking foreign languages (and she being able to understand them) and brief flashes of Japanese news reports. Weird … but too obviously wannabe-intellectual for no reason. "Mad Cowgirl" has quite a large fan-base and the most fanatic admirers will probably claim that I completely don't understand the underlying brilliance of Hatanka's filming style, but whatever. The film could have been much better.

Therese, a young health inspector, breaks off her marriage and indulges herself in a variety of obsessions to take her mind off her loneliness. When she's not inspecting restaurants and butcher shops, she is erotically masticating large amounts of red meat, religiously watching a cheesy Kung-Fu show, engaging in casual sex, or having and affair with her favorite skeezy televangelist. Her compulsions spin out of control and her downward spiral turns lethal when she discovers that her meat-packing brother may have given her meat that may have been infected with mad cow disease.Whoa. Where to begin with this one?! First off, Sarah Lassez is fantastic in the lead role. She displays incredible range. She's believable when she's breaking down and hilarious when she's imitating her favorite TV Kung Fu heroine. I don't really want to know how much red meat she consumed during the shooting...but let's just say she really knows how to take meat in her mouth. The supporting cast also fares well. Cult favorite James Duvall plays Therese's brother who may or may not have a crush on big sis. Devon Odessa (Sharon from My So Called Life!) is fun as her religious best friend with problems of her own. The film is uniquely shot (think "CrazyBird KatiePerson" but with a bit more talent behind the camera...and in the editing room) and the content is thoroughly repulsive.As fascinating as it is to watch, some of the messages are muddled. It is obvious director Gregory Hatanaka is trying to draw a parallel between red meat and sex, but it's never really clear why, except to make the viewer feel icky. Perhaps I need to re-read Carol Adams' The Sexual Politics of Meat? There are some other weird situations (for example, her doctor speaks Sinhala and she responds in English) that make the film a bit difficult to get through. Still, it is worth seeing for its performances and originality. I really haven't seen anything like this out there. And if you're thinking about becoming vegetarian but are too, uh, chicken to make the transition, definitely check this one out. It'll make it easier.
