IFC
Midnight has revealed a new poster for Franck Khalfoun’s adaptation of William
Lustig’s 1980 Maniac, starring Elijah Wood and Nora Arnezeder.
Plot Summary:
“Just
when the streets seemed safe, a serial killer with a fetish for scalps is back
and on the hunt. Frank (Elijah Wood) is the withdrawn owner of a mannequin
store, but his life changes when young artist Anna (Nora Arnezeder) appears
asking for his help with her new exhibition. As their friendship develops and
Frank's obsession escalates, it becomes clear that she has unleashed a
long-repressed compulsion to stalk and kill. A 21st century Jack the Ripper set
in present day L.A., Franck Khalfoun's "Maniac," produced by
Alexandre Aja ("The Hills Have Eyes," "Haute Tension"), and
composed by Rob of the band "Phoenix," is a re-boot of the William
Lustig cult film considered by many to be the most suspensseful slasher movie
ever made - an intimate, visually daring, psychologically complex and
projoundly horrific trip into the downward spiralling nightmare of a killer and
his victims.“
