Maniac

Frank Zito (Joe Spinell) 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 stalking, slaughtering and scalping innocent young women. Now Frank has begun a relationship with a beautiful photographer (Caroline Munro), yet his vile compulsions remain. These are the atrocities of a human monster. This is the story of a maniac. 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, 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.
