After a year of combating a pandemic with relatively benign symptoms, a frustrated nation finally lets its guard down. This is when the virus spontaneously mutates, giving rise to a mind-altering plague. The streets erupt into violence and depravity, as those infected are driven to enact the most cruel and ghastly things they can think of. Murder, torture, rape and mutilation are only the beginning. A young couple is pushed to the limits of sanity as they try to reunite amid the chaos. The age of civility and order is no more. There is only "The Sadness".

"An intense and uncompromising horror film that looks fantastic in 4K. The colors are vivid, the detail is impressive, and the striking artwork perfectly captures the movie’s chaotic energy. A great release for fans of extreme cinema."
"The Sadness is sort of like a live action version of the infamous Garth Ennis comic book series Crossed mixed with The Crazies and 28 Days Later and set in Taiwan. It's not quite as apocalyptic in scope as 28 Days or Weeks Later or Crossed so it's a bit more similar to The Crazies in that regard. Where's it's most similar to Crossed is in the ultra violence and gore aspect, with 4K and an excellent encode here it may be too much for some viewers."
"I love this movie and was excited when it was released by vinegar syndrome. The movie is pretty brutal so make sure you have a strong stomach before watching."
"One of the most brutal takes on zombies that has ever been put to film. It’s so awesome that Shudder has partnered with VinSyn to help preserve these streaming films."
"I really enjoyed this movie. It provided a lot of gore and was very entertaining. The movie is very well written highly recommend."
"Twisted take on the zombie/infected-with-virus genre. Leans heavily into sexual violence and depravity. Very bloody and brutal. Great presentation and not for the faint of heart. Good times!"
"A very gory, messed up good (?) time."
"Crazy gory, amazing new slip. A wild ride."
"I honestly didn't have high hopes for this movie as I figured it was another run-of-the mill zombie/outbreak flick, but boy was I wrong. From the moment the first infected began his assault, it was game on."
"Probably the coolest basic edition of this film I’ve ever seen. The booklet is so cool. Everything was shipped super well protected and tight."
