The Notorious Horror Classic! Now on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray!
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 13 th ), 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 our critically acclaimed restoration of MANIAC in true 4K Ultra High Definition
with Dolby Vision HDR and a new Dolby Atmos audio mix, overflowing with hours of Extras!
