Movie Oubliette

Maniac Cop (1988)

64 min • 3 maj 2021

Dan and Conrad hit the crime-ridden streets of 80s New York, only to be menaced by a Maniac Cop – an action/slasher hybrid starring Tom Atkins, Bruce Campbell, Laurene Landon, Richard Roundtree and Robert Z'Dar. With a screenplay by Larry Cohen, one might expect William Lustig's film to have a little more bubbling under the surface of this low-budget quickie about a zombie Dirty Harry menacing the streets at night. Certainly, the themes of police brutality and homicide without consequences feel disturbingly timely, but is the film itself an under-appreciated classic or a forgettable VHS video rental? Find out!
