Rating: 1/5 --
The sleazy embodiment of everything that was wrong with the ultraviolent slasher movies of the early 1980s.

Rating: 4/5 --
Seen today, the movie has more in common with the grungy Times Square aesthetic of Abel Ferrara than with the multitudes of slasher flicks that followed it.

Good sense, if not heaven, should protect anyone who thinks he likes horror films from wasting a price of admission on Maniac.

It's a surefire memorable horror film with a horrifying glimpse into the mind of a merciless killer.

Cinema Crazed
This old chestnut from 1980 is worth revisiting for fans of the nouveau 'old skool' horror films of today.

...an underwhelming, uninvolving product of its time that simply possesses no relevance in 2010.

Rating: 3/4 --
Though it's about as grungy as a film can get, it feels like a professional job, with a brisk flow and a hard, gritty, urban look and feel.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Frank Zito (a career performance by writer/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.
Directed by William Lustig (MANIAC COP 2, VIGILANTE) and featuring landmark gore effects by Tom Savini (DAWN OF THE DEAD, FRIDAY THE 13th), this relentlessly shocking and disturbing film was originally banned or censored all over the world due to its graphic violence. Now Blue Underground is thrilled to present MANIAC in a brand-new 4K Restoration from its recently discovered 16mm original camera negative!
