The Victorinox brand refused the bloody use of their Swiss knife in a first trailer version. That's why a joke was introduced in the feature film with Heidi's quote: "This is not a weapon!"
The Matterhorn is said to be located near Davos, in fact it is located just above Zermatt.
(But this fictional version may be closer from the original "Heidi" story by Johanna Spyri ).
SPOILER: The Swissploitation Films logo is a parody of the Paramount Pictures logo, using the Matterhorn mountain and Swiss cheese wheels for the stars.
Mad Heidi is trash! ... and that's a good thing. The film has a very high quality and thus leaves many other trash films behind. Actors, setting, cinematography - all great! Johannes Hartmann did a great job with the film and created a wonderful (Swiss) ploitation film that is at the forefront of the genre. If you like Switzerland, you will love all the clichés. Cheese, chocolate or the Swiss army knife are just a few examples. In terms of acting, Casper Van Dien and Max Rüdlinger stand out in particular. Van Dien plays the slimy "very Swiss leader" with great humor, while Rüdlinger, with his Swiss accent, plays Commander Knorr with exaggerated spite. The cinematography shows the most beautiful sides of Switzerland, while the action comes along with lots of blood, splatter and killing jokes.

The story behind "Mad Heidi" is almost as interesting - if not MORE interesting - than the film itself. The project started more than 3 years ago as the crazy dream of a bunch of Swiss horror/cult film-buffs. The mission: make the first-ever Swiss exploitation movie, preferably as insane and over-the-top as humanly possible. The challenge: they didn't have any money, only a lot of devoted enthusiasm and energy. What followed is probably one of the most impressive and respectable crowd-funding campaigns in history. Via Internet and various social media channels, the "Mad Heidi" hype slowly but surely increased. Funds were raised via merchandising (you could even buy a cuckoo-clock) and the pre-order DVD sales of a movie that didn't exist yet! The campaign was incredibly successful, and the film was made with more than enough budget for excellent special effects, and even the involvement of a relatively well-known B-actor; - Casper Van Dien. But then came Covid-19 ... Just like everything else in the world, the release of "Mad Heidi" was put on hold, and the patience of the cast, crew and thousands of co-funders got tested immensely. Now, and finally, the movie had its world-premiere at the Brussels' International Fantastic Film Festival. It was a real party. Inevitably, the festive ambiance before, during and after the screening of "Mad Heidi" heavily influenced my experience and rating. I'm sorry for that, but it's simply impossible to get euphoric when you are surrounded by hundreds of people yodeling in a theater, wearing fake Swiss Nazi-uniforms, and drinking beer. Most importantly, though, "Mad Heidi" is exactly what it promised to be ever since the beginning of production; - namely a massively entertaining and absurdly eccentric exploitation movie with copious amounts of splatter, twisted humor, demented characters, self-parody, deliberately dumb quotes and catch-phrases, and non-stop vitality. The tone, style and content of the film isn't new or innovative. The plot is comparable to crowd-pleasing flicks like "Inglourious Bastards" or "Iron Sky", and the script pays tribute to approximately three dozen of cinematic treasures varying from "The Sound of Music" to "Lady Snowblood". The story is of lesser importance, but it neatly follows the structure of a textbook revenge-thriller. If I tell you Casper Van Dien stars as the tyrannical and megalomaniacal President of Switzerland, and simultaneously CEO of the only authorized company to produce and export cheese, you already know enough. He wants to obtain world-domination via genetically altered cheese, but a heroic girl from the Alps is determined to get revenge for the murder of her boyfriend and the downfall of her beloved Motherland. Of all the great fun and splendid gimmicks, what I most appreciated is how the makers wonderfully inserted every possible Swiss cliche and national symbol into their film. There's the Matterhorn and cheese bowls in the film-logo already, but everything else you could possibly associate with Switzerland features as well: idyllic mountain paths, Alp horns, cuckoo clocks, cheese fondue, watches, pocket knives, Toblerone chocolate, ... There's so much lunacy and mayhem happening that Heidi's character and her quest for revenge is even pushed to the background sometimes, which is a minor default.

Crowdfunded faux-exploitation flick Mad Heidi is intended as a bit of dumb OTT fun. With its endless gags on everything Swiss (especially cheese), it is definitely dumb, but it's not nearly as much fun as I had hoped, the joke quickly wearing thinner than a slice of Emmental. Like Iron Sky (2012), with which it shares a similar vibe, the film suffers from a weak script and bad acting, and it only delivers sporadic gore when it would benefit from pushing the limits further and further with each subsequent scene. Alice Lucy plays Heidi, who has been living in the Swiss mountains with her grandfather ever since her parents were killed in a rebellion against President Meili (Casper Van Dien) and his Nazi-like regime. When Heidi's boyfriend Goat Peter (Kel Matsena) is killed for trading in illegal cheese, Heidi takes revenge and is jailed as a result. After a daring escape, Heidi throws herself over a waterfall and is presumed dead; however, she survives the plunge, and is trained how to fight back against her oppressors by Swiss goddess Helvetia. Mad Heidi wears it's exploitation influences on its sleeve - there's Nazis, nuns, dwarfs, a training montage and WIP action (we even get an Asian prisoner who is #701) - but the result lacks the grit and grime of the genuine article, the film's effectiveness further weakened by the puerile comedic elements: there's only so much cheese-based humour I can take.

A_Different_Drummer 23 December 2022
It is hard to criticize a film which starts off boasting about how it was crowd-funded by the common folk, with no interference from the big corporations or studios. Hard. But not impossible. The first red flag is that the uber-high ratings from the early posted member reviews do not match the ratings left by members who saw the film later, gave much lower ratings, but did not bother to leave a review. The explanation? Mad Heidi is loaded to the brim with raw energy and great expectations. But very little of that actually translates into a movie that anyone would care to waste 90 minutes on. The script seems like to have been written by someone trying to piece together the best parts of Max Max, Monty Python, and every Kung Fu film you have ever seen. The result is supposed to be unique and fresh. Instead it basically re-invents 1960's "experimental cinema," and does not do a very good job even at that. ((Designated "IMDb Top Reviewer."

Mad Heidi got a few really funny and good scenes (and ideas), and some gore too. But, and that is a big but, the movie is far too long and needs some serious cutting of redundant material. Also, the movie is too tame - the exploitation scenes are too short, the action scenes too few and not brutal enough for that kind of movies. What I liked most are the light-hearted commentaries on movie making, society and zeitgeist that are ridiculed in some of the scenes just fine. So all in all Mad Heidi was an ambivalent experience to me - funny yes, but on the other hand too tame for its own good. If you want to do exploitation you should do it right - with all its cheesy nastiness. To sum it up: the strong suits of Mad Heidi are the elements of comedy, sadly the level of sleaze is too low, those of violence too (at least for my taste). What else? Production is okay, overacting done solid. Conclusion: if you can enjoy such flicks as Nazis at the Center of the Earth or the Iron Sky movies, you may dare to give Mad Heidi your time.

The film is a parody of various films. The head of the Meili Cheese corporation becomes the President of Switzerland (Casper Van Dien) and outlaws all cheese except his own. 20 years after he puts down an insurrection we switch to Heidi (Alice Lucy) who lives in the alps and is in love with Goat Peter (Kel Matsena) who makes illegal cheese. He is caught and killed, Heidi is imprisoned. She manages to escape and finds a mountain temple where she trains as a Swiss Ninja. Do I need to go on? I think you get the silly picture. Heidi is like Uma Thurman in "Kill Bill" and there are scenes and lines spoofed from various films. It was a fun romp. Guide: F-word and nudity (Milo Moiré + others)
"I work for the industry" is a general term in LA if someone works for the movie industry (been there, done that). This movie originates from no industry. It is handcraftet with tons of love and effort and it reflects throughout the whole movie. I was very surprised. The crew is learning... but did their homework well with great professionalism and it turned out to be great fun to watch the outcome. If you are open for low budget independant movies with a mid budget feel... go see the movie. Will watch it again with friends and a couple of beers. And no, I'm not part of the crew and I'm not a crowdfunder. In general I don't even like the genre. But i've had to write this to add another POV after reading some of the negative comments.

Sadly, the title says it all. Being a long time fan of campy B-flicks (SyFy and Asylum kind), I was genuinely having fun for the first half of the movie, then grew increasingly disappointed and bored, and finally ended up simply fast forwarding to the end at about three quarters in. I'm not sure how they managed to ruin such a promising start, but have to give credit to them where it's due, they sure did. My guess is it became too serious for its own good, bordering on what one might call woke (where "too serious" is a default lowest setting, never a good thing on its own). Too bad for Casper Van Dien, the hero of oh so many trashy flicks I am such a fan of.

Alright, what did I just watch here? I hadn't heard about "Mad Heidi" prior to sitting down to watch it, but with it being an action comedy as it was presented by its synopsis, I will say that there definitely seemed to be grounds for a fun movie here. And "Mad Heidi" was indeed watchable, but it was by no means an outstanding comedy experience. And writers Sandro Klopfstein, Johannes Hartmann, Gregory D. Widmer and Trent Haaga seemed to be going everywhere and nowhere all at the same time, because the storyline in "Mad Heidi" was strange. However, the utter lack of comedy in the movie made it a somewhat tedious movie to sit through. Luckily, the movie makes up for the lack of comedy in its bizarre oddities and excessive violent moments - not an abundance, but they are there. And that made "Mad Heidi" bearable to sit through. However, I have to say that I wasn't particularly entertained here, and this is hardly a movie that I would recommend you to rush out to get to watch. Nor is it a movie that I will ever watch a second time. The acting in the movie was adequate, taking into consideration the type of movie that it was and the limitations imposed by the script. It was surprising, though, to see the likes of Casper Van Dien in a movie such as this. I am sure that there is an audience out there for a movie such as what directors Johannes Hartmann and Sandro Klopfstein delivered here. No doubt about it. I actually didn't laugh a single time throughout there course of "Mad Heidi", though I did enjoy some of the cheesy - pun intended - scenes and the excessive violence scenes. My rating of "Mad Heidi" lands on a five out of ten stars.

Mad Heidi starts off by loading a gun. Not a real gun, but the weapon that will figuratively shoot the viewer in the face. But in a good way. Having seen the teaser the viewer is not likely to be fooled by the beautiful Swiss scenery and impressive visuals. They can feel the revolver being loaded with quick and well practiced motions until it is primed and pointed right at their head. And then the movie starts. The revolver vanishes and makes room for some sort of gatling gun capable of firing hundreds of rounds per minute for 92 minutes. And it simply doesn't stop anymore. An endless torrent of finely choreographed scenes flicker across the big screen. Every single one filled to the brink with tiny little details, action, humor, cheese, and most of all swissploitation. If you, like me, are not fully familiar with Swiss culture and traditions some details might not be obvious to you, but they are all placed in a way that they don't distract from what is currently going on and instead serve to add depth and humor if you can spot them. Outstanding performances are paired with beautiful cinematography, set design, outfits, an overwhelmingly well fitting score and so on. Everything really looks and sounds as close to perfect as you can get. Mad Heidi manages to establish its own genre while still paying tribute to the greats that influenced its creators. Overall it is a rapid fire of awesomeness that doesn't stop until the movie is over, leaving you wishing there was even more Mad Heidi. 10/10.

This was utter cheese, and not the fancy expensive stuff, but the stinky moldy curds you throw away. This tried to be funny, it wasn't, and there was nothing humorous enough to even crack a smirk. The gore effects were better in the 80's. The narrative was boring, dragged out, cliched and predictable. The story had more holes in its plot than Swiss cheese. The poor pacing and long dragged out and unnecessary scenes made the normally comfortable 92 min runtime feel never-ending. Even the fight choreography was laughable, especially when Alice Lucy's character Heidi could barely lift or swing any of the weapons. If you take every bad film ever made in its genres and put them together, you'll get this garbage. This film tried too hard to be an arthouse-grindhouse dark-comedy gore flick, and failed in every department, and for that matter, is an insult to other films in those genres. The bogus high reviews are more entertaining. The only bonus points was the excellent use of colors and decent cinematography, the adequate score and soundtrack, as well as the gorgeous landscapes and funky sets. Even so, it was a complete waste of time, and pointless why this nonsense was even made. You have to be a bunch of slices short of a loaf to find anything in this nonsense entertaining.

All over the horror web advertisement was seen for this Swiss exploitation flick. So when it came available on the official site it was time to see of it was worthy the fuss. To be honest I was left with a bitter feeling, expected more from it but still it isn't that bad, only the gore is on low level, and it is exactly the gore that we expected from this flick. Storywise it's okay and casting is okay. It's one big ode to the exploitation flicks from back then. And even
