Review of Maniac

Maniac (1980)
A great slasher/horror flick
12 June 2001
Maniac is so disturbing and sadistic that it's so fun to watch. Joe Spinnel (Willie Cheechee from the godfather movies) is the slasher as he kills sexy young women and scalps them then puts their scalps on his set of female mannequins in his apartment as a hobby. It's an unusual hobby I must say.

Best scene: Spinnel walks onto the hood of a parked car and blows a guy's head off with a shotgun at close range.

The end makes it a horror flick when all of the mannequins come to life and tear Spinnel apart in an after-life revenge activity that is ultimately satisfying.
