Synopsis
The Sadness (哭悲, 2021) is a Taiwanese horror-thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Rob Jabbaz and produced by Machi Xcelsior Studios, the 99-minute film follows a pandemic that has simmered for a year — until the pathogen shifts, and the infected stop merely attacking. They start enjoying it.
Jim (Berant Zhu) and Kat (Regina Lei) are a young couple separated on an ordinary morning commute. By midday, Taipei has become somewhere else entirely. Jim fights through streets that no longer follow any logic. Kat is trapped on a subway train with people who should not be alive, doing things that cannot be undone. The film cuts between the two as the city collapses around them.
Released in 2021, The Sadness built its reputation on sheer physical intensity — practical effects, no digital safety net, a director who clearly wanted viewers uncomfortable. Not for the faint of heart. Watch The Sadness (2021) online on iFILM.
