Stop-motion and visual effects master Phil Tippett's film MadGod is a project 30 years in the making, and the nightmare it delivers is worth the wait.
Sometimes a film defies description even after you watch it. In the case of Mad God, Oscar-winning filmmaker Phil Tippett’s stop-motion magnum opus developed over more than three decades, the difficulty in boiling the film down to a few sentences is ultimately a good problem to have, because the singular experience it offers is one that benefits from having as little information as possible going into it.
From the film’s opening moments, Tippett’s attention to detail in every scene over the film’s 83-minute running time is breathtaking. Everything around The Assassin is depicted with a meticulous sense of depth and weight — physical, emotional, and narrative — and each new horror the protagonist experiences is terrifying in a palpable sense.
While the underlying narrative in the film rarely feels well-defined, it’s enough to link the events unfolding on the screen together for much of the film’s first two acts or so. Any responsibility to preserving that narrative gets dropped late in Mad God, though, which meanders a bit through its final 20-30 minutes.
