Maniac (1980)
Frank Zito (a career performance by co-writer/co-executive producer Joe Spinell of 'Rocky' and 'The Godfather' fame) is a deeply disturbed man, haunted by the traumas of unspeakable childhood abuse. And when these horrific memories begin to scream inside his mind, Frank prowls the seedy streets of New York City to stalk and slaughter innocent young women. Now Frank has begun a relationship with a beautiful photographer (Caroline Munro of 'The Spy Who Loved Me'), yet his vile compulsions remain. These are the atrocities of a human monster. This is the story of a maniac.
Experience 'Maniac' like you've never seen or heard it before. Directed by William Lustig and featuring landmark gore effects by Tom Savini ('Dawn of the Dead'), this notorious classic was censored all over the world for its graphic violence and remains banned in England and Germany to this day. But 'Maniac' is more than just one of the most relentlessly depraved films of our time; It is quite possibly one of the most disturbing horror movies ever made...
