Maniac (1980) and Savini Effect at Times Cinema
“You can lock your doors, but you can’t lock the madman out of your mind,” warns the trailer for Maniac. Truthfully, it’s difficult to forget anything from this over-the-top splatter masterpiece, the opening salvo in William Lustig’s blood-stained assault on the grindhouses and video stores of the 1980s. Dropping a serial killer with a scalping fetish and serious mommy issues into the grime of pre-Giuliani New York City, Lustig crafts an uncompromising vision of psychological and physical terror—particularly during the infamous “Disco Boy” sequence. (You’ll know it when you see it—from three brutal, separate angles.) Fittingly, Milwaukee horror-enthusiasts Savini Effect open the show.
